Join us at the 2026 Teacher Leader Summit in New Orleans!

If you’re attending TLS ‘26, be sure to stop by the LFT booth and connect with leaders, staff, and affiliates from across Louisiana.

We’ll be there throughout the summit sharing resources, advocacy updates, professional support information, and opportunities to get involved in strengthening public education for educators and students alike.

Take action today and tell legislators to use Revenue Stabilization Trust Fund dollars to prevent a pay cut for teachers and school employees.

Louisiana teachers and school employees should not face a reduction in pay while the state has resources available to prevent it.

The Revenue Stabilization Trust Fund exists to help Louisiana navigate critical financial needs, and protecting educator pay should be a priority. Teachers and support staff have continued showing up for students every single day, and lawmakers must do the same for them.

Every student, teacher, and employee deserves safe, welcoming classrooms where learning can thrive. We also believe in accountability, transparency, and creating pathways to a better future for all Louisiana families.

✅ HB 818 would call for more transparency in state testing for students, parents, and educators.

✅ HB 283, the Teacher’s Shield Act, is a targeted school safety bill that addresses assault and battery involving students and school employees.

✅ SB 157 would grant paid parental leave to teachers and school employees. 

Now is the time to raise your voice and take action. Contact your legislators and tell them to vote YES for schools, educators, and communities.
