Louisiana HB206 authorizes legislators to attend meetings of entities with membership subject to legislative confirmation.

Louisiana HB206 amends existing law to authorize members of the legislature to attend meetings of any state board, commission, agency, authority, task force, or committee, including those held in private or executive session. The bill extends this authority to any entity if any or all of its membership is subject to legislative confirmation. This change ensures legislators can attend meetings of entities that require legislative oversight.
