Louisiana Voice

Just a quick reminder that we’re just kicking off our Fall Fundraiser to support the work of LouisianaVoice.

LouisianaVoice is now a 501(c)(3), tax-exempt organization now, which means your contributions are 100% tax-deductible.

We have expenses, most of which involve the procurement of public records and the occasional legal fight to obtain same and we need, solicit, and appreciate any support you can provide.

You may contribute to our efforts to bring stories about government agencies, officials who bend the law to their advantage, legal maneuvers to silence critics of elected officials, audit findings, campaign contributions and a myriad other stories that affect our day to day lives.

And don’t forget, anyone contributing $100 or more gets a signed copy of my latest book, Louisiana’s Rogue Sheriffs: A Culture of Corruption.

You may contribute by credit card by clicking on the oval yellow DONATE button in the column to the right of this post or you may your check to:

Every story I write won’t be as significant as an audit that finds wholesale theft or of sexual harassment at a state agency. Not every story will have the mystery of a Louisiana Department of Education official who joined with the brother of a president to corner the rights to potable water in Florida. Not every story originated by LouisianaVoice will exposes the abuses of boards like the State Board of Dentistry or the State Board of Medical Examiners. And certainly, not every story will meet with your approval because no two people agree on everything.

But the one thing I can promise is that LouisianaVoice will continue in its efforts to ferret out corruption, bad judgment and mismanagement at every level of government.

And that is why your help is needed: so those efforts can continue.

Thank you.
