The future of our state is in the hands of a few who have been “influenced” by industry and lobbyists.

When politicians sell out landowners for corporate energy interests, voters clean house.

Festus Co., MO – City council members who voted for data centers? GONE.

South Dakota – 14 legislators who backed CCS eminent domain? GONE.

Michigan – 26 local officials who approved wind/solar over community opposition? GONE.

The pattern is clear.
This isn’t just about Speaker Phillip Devillier and the House Natural Resources Committee anymore.

Senate President Cameron Henry — if he kills SB 60 in Committee he owns the outcome.

Senate Natural Resources Committee — if they don’t pass it out, they own the outcome.

Every Senator who votes NO on the floor — they own the outcome.

Louisiana landowners are watching. LACAG is watching. Every vote is on record. Every name will be remembered.

The ballot box is coming.

🚨 ALLEN PARISH BLINDSIDED? HB 247 HANDS POWER TO UNELECTED BOARD AHEAD OF TODAY’S VOTE!

A bill moving through the Louisiana Legislature today is raising serious concerns across Allen Parish—and for good reason.

House Bill 247, introduced by State Representative Dewitt Carrier, would create a new Allen Parish Economic Development District and abolish the existing tourism commission.

On paper, it sounds like economic progress.

In reality, it may represent one of the most significant shifts in local control Allen Parish has seen in years.

A Board With Power—But Not Accountability

According to the bill’s official structure, the new district would be governed by a five-member board made up of:

Industrial Development Board President
Oakdale Chamber of Commerce President
Kinder Chamber of Commerce President
Police Jury President
State Representative (or designee)

That means a majority of this board is not elected by the people.

And yet, this same board would have the authority to:

Negotiate economic development projects
Enter into agreements with private corporations
Accept funding from businesses and outside interests
Oversee development across the parish

What the April 8 American Press Article Reveals

https://digital.americanpress.com/American-Press-04082026-e-Edition/3/

👉 Allen Parish Police Jury members were not properly involved in the development of this bill.
👉 Key local officials were left out of discussions before it reached Baton Rouge.
👉 Questions remain about how the board will operate, who controls it, and how decisions will be made.

This is not a minor oversight.

The governing body of Allen Parish is being bypassed on a bill that directly affects the parish's future.

The NDA Problem Nobody Is Talking About

The bill gives the board authority to:

Enter into contracts
Partner with private corporations
Accept outside funding

In Louisiana, that combination almost always leads to one thing:

👉 Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs)

Which means:

Deals can be negotiated behind closed doors
Elected officials can be limited in what they disclose
Citizens may not know what’s happening until it’s too late
Why This Matters Right Now

Allen Parish is already in the middle of major industrial interest, including:

Carbon Capture (CCS) projects
Pipeline infrastructure
Potential large-scale developments

This board would have broad authority over those types of projects.

And under the current bill:

➡️ There is no guaranteed final approval by the Police Jury
➡️ There is no required public vote
➡️ There is no clear mechanism for citizen input before decisions are made

Follow the Money

HB 247 explicitly allows the district to receive funding from:

Corporations
Private entities
Outside financial contributors

That raises a serious question:

👉 If corporations help fund the board… who is the board really working for?

Allen Parish Police Juror Roland Hollins has raised concerns that go to the heart of this issue:

The Police Jury should have final authority over projects
The public should have the opportunity to speak before decisions are made
Local elected officials should not be sidelined in decisions affecting their parish

These are not extreme requests.

They are basic expectations of local government accountability.

The Bigger Question

This bill forces a question every citizen should be asking:

👉 Who controls Allen Parish’s future?

Elected officials accountable to voters?
Or a board where most members are not elected at all?
What Happens Next

HB 247 has already:

Passed the House
Cleared committee
Is now headed for a Senate vote @3:30 TODAY

Allen Parish residents deserve to know:

👉 Who made these decisions
👉 Why local officials were left out
👉 And what comes next

🔥 Who is really feeding Louisiana media the anti-citizen narrative in the CCS fight?

A new LLC. The same familiar industry circles. And a lot of hard questions that deserve answers.

Before you believe the next hit piece on grassroots groups, local leaders, or citizens fighting for their land and water, read this blog. Then ask yourself: **who built the message, who delivered it, and who benefits from it?**

Questions are growing about media packets, industry ties, and Louisiana’s CCS messaging war.

🚨 The deeper we dug, the darker it got. 🚨

What’s being sold as a grassroots energy movement may actually be something else entirely: a political machine built to protect CCS, defend 45Q, and take out John Fleming.

The names matter. The money matters. The timing matters.
Louisiana voters deserve to know exactly who is behind it — and why.

Halftime in Louisiana’s eminent domain fight.

A major Louisiana Supreme Court ruling just put landowners back in the game — and raised serious questions about eminent domain, pressured contracts, and what comes next with HB7.

This is not the final victory.
This is momentum.

Who is really standing with the people of Louisiana?

When it comes to carbon capture, eminent domain abuse, land rights, and the future of our state, the contrast in this Senate race could not be clearer.

Bill Cassidy helped fund the federal CCS machine.
Julia Letlow is tied to the same political orbit protecting it.

John Fleming is the only major candidate who has publicly stood against CCS and eminent domain abuse in Louisiana.

If you care about private property rights, local control, and stopping corporations from using Louisiana as a sacrifice zone, this race matters.

We broke it all down in our latest piece in COâ‚‚ Chronicles

SB244 changed the game in Louisiana.
And most citizens still do not fully realize what is now at stake.

Over the last year, CCS has moved from discussion to implementation. The laws have changed. The power structure has changed. And as we head into the 2026 Legislative Session, the biggest fight is no longer just about carbon capture — it is about who controls our land, our water, and our future.

Our latest COâ‚‚ Chronicles blog breaks down:

* what changed in Louisiana over the last year
* how **SB244** reshaped the CCS landscape
* what citizens need to know before this session moves further
* and what is truly at stake for landowners, parishes, and local control

The 2026 session could decide who holds the power in this state for years to come — the people, or the industry.
