Election Day Prep: Louisiana voters head to the polls Saturday with a closely watched U.S. Senate primary on top, but the big twist is that U.S. House races won’t be decided then—those contests were canceled and pushed to the fall open primary cycle, adding fresh confusion as polling places have also changed. Abortion Fight: The U.S. Supreme Court kept mifepristone access alive for now, preserving telehealth and mail options while Louisiana’s lawsuit continues—another short-term win in a case that’s been reshaping access nationwide. Redistricting Fallout: The Supreme Court’s Louisiana v. Callais decision is still rippling outward, with Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen announcing retirement after his district was carved up, and civil-rights groups planning a major “All Roads Lead to the South” voting-rights march in Alabama. Energy & Jobs: Energy Secretary Chris Wright visited Golden Pass LNG, praising record U.S. gas exports and signaling momentum for more LNG projects, including Commonwealth LNG in Louisiana. Statehouse Watch: A bill to end Louisiana’s vehicle inspection brake tag sticker requirement cleared the Senate, moving toward Gov. Jeff Landry’s desk.
