What will Louisiana do with $3.2 billion in stimulus aid? Behind-the scenes talks underway Will Sentell One of the key issues hovering over the 2021 regular legislative session is how state leaders plan to use the latest gusher of federal stimulus aid: $3.2 billion that could offset pandemic losses and also benefit a wide range of services. Behind-the-scenes talks are underway among Gov. John Bel Edwards, Senate President Page Cortez, R- Lafayette, and House Speaker Clay Schexnayder, R-Gonzales, on what to do with the money. The legislative session starts on April 12. Edwards said replenishing Louisiana s unemployment trust fund, which shrunk from $1.1 billion last year to nothing amid heavy job losses, is his top priority.
