Louisiana lawmakers continue debating legal reform as insurance costs remain a major issue across the state. State Rep. Emily Chenevert discussed House Bill 437, which would have limited expert witnesses in civil cases if they had financial interests tied to case outcomes. The bill did not move forward, but lawmakers say conversations about lawsuit reform are not stopping. Chenevert said insurance affordability remains one of the top concerns voters bring to lawmakers. Supporters of legal reform argue Louisiana must improve its business climate and legal environment to stay competitive with neighboring states. The interview also touched on legislation involving parental consent requirements for minors receiving certain medical services. Chenevert said lawmakers continue working bills through the final weeks of the legislative session.

He argued imported seafood often competes under weaker standards while Louisiana shrimpers follow strict regulations.

They also discussed how heated political campaigns have become and agreed attacks on candidates’ families have gone too far.
