Most Louisiana voters believe people should have access to abortion in the first 15 weeks of pregnancy, according to NOLA.com and The Advocate commissioned poll. From Meghan Friedmann. #lalege nola.com/news/politics/…

“About 62% of Louisianians support same-sex marriage, according to a 2022 survey from the nonpartisan Public Religion Research Institute,” yet the don’t care what people want.
