Thank Your Legislator for Protecting Louisiana's Small Businesses

The Louisiana Legislature has unanimously passed House Bill 192, which allocates $500 million to the Unemployment Insurance Trust Fund. The bill, sponsored by Rep. Jerome Zeringue, ensures that small business owners won’t see an immediate increase in their unemployment taxes.

That’s why we’re encouraging members like you to thank your representative and senator for voting “yes” on H.B. 192. Click here to contact your legislators directly and tell them what this legislation means for your small business!
