Excerpt:
Louisiana voters overwhelmingly rejected all four constitutional amendments championed by Republican lawmakers and backed by Governor Jeff Landry.
The amendments, which ranged from cracking down on unethical out-of-state lawyers, modernizing the tax code, holding violent juvenile offenders accountable, and streamlining judicial elections, were defeated at the ballot box in what conservatives are calling a “Soros-fueled sabotage” of Louisiana’s future.
Amendment 1: Protecting Louisiana’s Legal Integrity — Rejected by Over 190,000 Votes
Amendment No. 1 aimed to expand the Louisiana Supreme Court’s authority to discipline unethical out-of-state lawyers and grant the legislature power to create specialized trial courts. Supporters argued it was a necessary step to maintain legal integrity and flexibility in a changing world.
But voters saw it differently, with 65% rejecting the measure, according to WDSU.
