ExplanationofInformation
Louisiana Family Forum believes elected officials should support policies and programs that protect and promote families and traditional values in Louisiana. To accomplish this goal, LFF educates voters about specific legislation and voting records. Legislators scoring 100% are recognized as Outstanding Family Advocate.
LFF utilizes the official voting records of the Louisiana Legislature. In the House, members are allowed to change their votes in the Official Record. In Senate, members are not allowed to change their votes. However, on a debatable question each member shall be allowed to explain his vote in writing only, and this explanation shall be incorporated in the Journal, if requested. (Senate Rule 12.1 B)
