Americans for Prosperity-Louisiana Announces Four New Endorsements Ahead of General Election
Baton Rouge, LA — Today, Americans for Prosperity-Louisiana (AFP-LA) announced its support of four additional candidates to serve various parts of the Pelican State, rounding out a total of 21 endorsements this election season. The announcement comes on the heels of the organization’s backing of 17 candidates in the primary, 15 of which found success on election night.
With a priority to advance policies that put Louisiana families, schools, and businesses first, AFP-LA is confident that these are the right leaders to get the job done. The major grassroots mobilizer reached more than 130,000 voters in a two-and-a-half-month span, and plans on connecting with even more voters ahead of the November 18, 2023, election.
AFP-LA State Director Scott Simon issued the following statement:
“Our team is committed to bringing transformative change to Louisiana by electing strong leaders who will lower taxes, fight rising insurance costs, expand options in education, and bring in regulatory reform.
“As we gain momentum towards election day, AFP-LA endorses these candidates who will further bring the leadership skills that will drive reforms necessary to move this great state forward.”
