Louisiana REALTORS conducted an extensive bill review session on Tuesday, April 18 and selected approximately 300 bills to monitor over the 2017 Legislative Session. The LR Legislative Bill Tracker is an Excel worksheet that will need to be downloaded for viewing. The file was compiled with both Senate and House Bills and contains active links. You will see it also provides additional links to more detailed items pertaining to the bill such as the author and a bill digest. The status of the bills are updated as they go through the legislative process. LR will continue to publish weekly highlights or pertinent updates on the 2017 Legislative Session page.
