Stephen Waguespack Speaks at Chamber Luncheon |
(l-r) David Landry, Stephen Waguespack, Mike Nicaud, Lacey Osborne and Dr. Michael Sprague |
Stephen Waguespack spoke to a sold-out audience at the Chamber’s “Legislative Issues” luncheon last week, in what turned out to be his last speaking engagement as Louisiana Association of Business and Industry's president and CEO. He resigned later that afternoon, declaring his candidacy for Louisiana’s governor. During the luncheon, Waguespack discussed LABI’s policy priorities for the upcoming 2023 legislative session, including those on economic development, education, tax policy and crime. Read more here.
