BATON ROUGE — The Louisiana Association of Business and Industry has released its 2026 Legislative Scorecard, recognizing 90 lawmakers for supporting policies aimed at growing the state's economy.

The scorecard covers 16 bills selected based on policy priorities driven by LABI members.

Legislators who scored 80% or higher were recognized in one of three categories. That includes 52 Most Valuable Policymakers with perfect 100% scores, 16 All-Stars with scores between 90% and 99% and 22 Honorable Mentions with scores between 80% and 89%.

"This year's results are not simply a reflection of legislative votes," said LABI CEO and President Will Green. "They are a testament to the sustained efforts of Louisiana's business community to recruit and elect pro-business leaders, mobilize grassroots advocates and champion free-market principles throughout the legislative process."

"When employers invest their time, resources and voices in public policy, meaningful change follows," Green said. "The progress captured in this year's Scorecard reflects the impact of a business community that remains organized, engaged and committed to advancing policies that strengthen Louisiana's economy and create opportunity for future generations."

Green also pointed to workforce development as a key win from the session.

"While divisive issues may have dominated the headlines at times, the most meaningful success of this session was the bipartisan work to strengthen Louisiana's workforce."

"Lawmakers advanced policies that expanded career pathways, strengthened work-based learning and better connected education to the needs of job creators," Green said. "These are the investments that will prepare Louisianans for the jobs of today and tomorrow, give businesses the talent they need to grow and create more opportunities for families in every parish."

LABI has been recognizing pro-growth lawmakers for 46 years. The organization says it will continue pushing for free enterprise policies as the state heads into the 2027 election cycle.

This year's honorees will be recognized at LABI's Legislative Champions Reception on Dec. 10 at the LABI Center for Free Enterprise.
