Editor’s Note: A press release from the Louisiana Freedom Caucus.

BATON ROUGE—The Louisiana Freedom Caucus (LAFC) is honored to announce that all of its Founding Members were successful in their re-elections to their House seats or in their run for the Senate in the primary elections held on October 14. We have also made substantial gains in elections for new members with several more in both the House and the Senate on great footing as we move into the runoff period.

“Louisiana has the greatest people in the world. We have the most abundant natural resources, we have a culture that other states envy, but we have never had a great government. With the election of Jeff Landry and the overwhelming success of the conservative Republicans across the board, we are now set to change that. It’s not going to change overnight, but for the first time in its history, Louisiana finally has a team in place to chart a course that shakes off the chains of the past and makes Louisiana’s government as great as its people,” said Senator-elect Alan Seabaugh, Chairman of the Louisiana Freedom Caucus, who was elected to Senate District 31 with 54% of the vote after a staggering amount of special interest money was spent in an attempt to take out the founding chairman.

“Current Republican leadership of the House and Senate worked in lock-step with John Bel Edwards. Their political games have left Louisiana with serious problems. But on October 14, voters made it clear that the reign of the RINOs is over! 2024 will begin with solid conservative Jeff Landry as governor, with a supermajority of Republicans in both the House and Senate, and with a public that has grown intolerant of smoke and mirrors. New Louisiana is dawning!” said Rep. Beryl Amedée, Secretary-Treasurer of the Louisiana Freedom Caucus, who ran unopposed in District 51.

“The outcome of this election couldn’t be any clearer: our citizens yearn for a departure from the establishment politics that have too often favored a privileged few. This shift toward conservatism highlights the public’s longing for leaders who truly prioritize their needs, pushing back against the status quo of establishment politics. The Louisiana Freedom Caucus shares my commitment to ensuring that the voices of Louisiana’s cherished citizens don’t just echo in the halls of power but drive genuine change for our beloved state,” said Senator-elect Blake Miguez, Founding Member, Louisiana Freedom Caucus, who won his election garnering 61% of the vote in Senate District 22 in the primary against four opponents.

“The people of Louisiana have entrusted us with an opportunity to turn the tide here in our beautiful state. We have a sacred duty to honor that trust. I love the people of my district and I look forward to serving them for another four years. Let’s get it done!” said Danny McCormick, Founding Member, Louisiana Freedom Caucus, who won re-election in House District 1, garnering 66% of the vote.
