AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

US Supreme Court: The court kept mifepristone accessible for now, blocking a move that would have forced in-person dispensing while Louisiana’s challenge to the FDA continues—telehealth and mail can resume, at least temporarily. Louisiana Politics: Voters head to the May 16 ballot on Amendment 3, which would lock in permanent teacher and support-staff pay raises by dissolving education trust funds to pay down retirement debt. Local Education: Natchitoches Parish schools enrolled 38 American Indian students in 2025-26—0.8% of the district—down 13.6% from the year before. Courts & Crime: In the Tellis murder trial, lawyers battled over cellphone location estimates from AT&T NELOS data, with the defense challenging how far the phone could have been from the victim’s apartment. Business: Hancock Whitney signed a deal to buy Orlando’s OFB Bancshares, aiming to grow its Florida footprint. Tech & Access: Nextlink activated a BEAD-funded fixed-wireless tower in southern Bienville Parish, bringing service signups to 104 locations.
