Legislators have adjourned the second extraordinary session of 2024, called by Governor Jeff Landry to focus on crime, six days before its schedule deadline. More than a dozen bills were approved by both chambers and now head to the Governor’s desk for signature. He is expected to sign all bills into law. Measures adopted include concealed carrying of firearms without a permit, expansion of the methods used to administer the death penalty, increased penalties for crimes including carjacking and the distribution of fentanyl, expansion of drug courts, changes to the age of juvenile offenders and restrictions to parole and probation.
