For years, Jeff and I watched friends pack up and move to Texas, Georgia, Florida, all in search of better opportunities and stronger communities. People left, hoping to find something more than what Louisiana seemed to offer.
We were discouraged in many ways, but deep down, we knew Louisiana had the potential to be great—if only it had the right leadership and priorities.
We believe the key lies in prioritizing what truly matters: family.
Jeff and I were both raised here, in the heart of Acadiana. We were taught hard work, Christian values, and embracing the “joie de vivre” that we all know so well in Louisiana. But most importantly, we were taught that family was the foundation of everything. It’s what keeps us grounded, connected, and strong. Family is the heart of our communities, and it’s the heart of Louisiana.
That’s why we believe in the potential of Louisiana—it’s not just a place, but a community of people who care about each other. We believe that people should “come home” and raise their families here. Let’s invest in the future of our state by investing in the future of our families.
Sharon Landry and Governor Jeff Landry are dedicated to strengthening Louisiana's families and communities for a brighter future.
