Louisiana House of Representatives

Okay, another factor is, this is, uh, true for psychology, I found this out, how psychology got captured by the left not only has to do with the universities, but has to do with the map of representation of psychologists.

So I found out that, like in the American Psychological Association, some of the representatives, we were testifying in front of Louisiana House of Representatives on the bill, the Fairness in Women's Sports bill.

Some of them asked the question, "How come all the associations have come down on the side of the transgender?" And one of the answers from one of the experts was, "These are how the associations vote." So it brought up in my mind, how does that happen? What happens in the American Psychological Association is the numbers congregate in California and New York, and throughout, in the flyover states, there are fewer psychologists.

Like Louisiana, for instance, has one of the lowest numbers of psychologists per capita.

But since then, that number has grown to at least 54 elected officials that signed an NDA with LED.

And as it currently stands, the leaders of both legislative chambers have signed NDAs, along with 77% of the entire Louisiana Senate and about 13% of the Louisiana House.

Okay, wow, that is a lot.

So it's becoming almost just normalized at this point, it sounds like.

In this case, healthcare.

Um, and so there it will have, it will have a, be scheduled for a hearing, scheduled for a markup, and then ultimately get to the, the House floor.

My optimism about it ultimately getting the hearing and getting to the House floor is because it is bipartisan.

Yeah.

So this is not one of those bills that will be caught up in the partisan divide of, you know, my way, highway.

Do you think there was less partisan support in the past nine Congresses that looked at this?

You know, I don't know the answer to that.

Uh, uh, I don't know what the obstacles were, but I will tell you a quick story of what my dear friend, who was the former speaker of the house of Louisiana House of Representatives, who then became the president of the Senate.
