Protecting Your Right to Make a Profit About 3,500 bills are filed each
legislative session -- and many of them are designed to tax more of your
profits, or to otherwise impede your ability to make a living. Here’s a
few examples of our unmatched firepower:
Every year some legislators attack the very
foundation of our job incentive programs. They don’t seem to understand
that what they deem “corporate welfare” are exactly the same incentives
every state uses to attract and keep businesses within their borders. In
fact, Louisiana’s inducement programs are sadly lacking because our job
growth lags far behind the rest of the South.
Jobs mean payrolls…payrolls mean increased
taxes. LABI’s job is to convince legislators that excessive business
taxes are not the answer…and that they should not eliminate the handful
of incentives businesses have to locate and thrive here.
LABI’s Grassroots Fax Network alerts over 4,000
businesses when it’s time to strike. Calls from members to their
hometown legislators spell the difference between success and failure.
Wouldn’t you like to influence the outcome of decisions that affect
you?
The LABI lobbying team -- eight highly regarded
professionals-meets regularlywith Louisiana legislators. We read
every bill! During the session we are at the Capitol from the time the
session convenes until it adjourns..everyday. No other group can
make this claim. But, then, none has LABI's record of
accomplishment.
