American Oil and Gas Reporter - February 2020 - 73

ConventionSection: Louisiana Oil & Gas Association
Co. and Entergy New Orleans, could cost
the state more than $133 billion in lost
capital.
Louisiana's legal morass affects people
outside the oil and gas industry, Briggs
notes, pointing to the state's automobile
insurance rates, the second-highest in
the country. In the last legislative session,
the Louisiana Senate rejected HB 372,
the Omnibus Premium Reduction Act
of 2019.
"Auto insurance is one of the bigticket items that cuts across all industries
and hits everyone in Louisiana in the
pocket," Gifford assesses. "When you
talk to people in some areas, such as
Acadia Parish and South Louisiana, which
have a lot of historical oil and gas investment and a lot of industry employees,
tort reform for the oil and gas industry
and dealing with these coastal legacy
lawsuits are top priorities."
Tort reform also is needed in the medical field, Briggs suggests. Because of
the country's opioid abuse crisis, more
than 100 lawsuits have been filed against
pharmaceutical makers and distributors.

One media report indicates more than
100 lawsuits have been filed in the state,
while Louisiana Attorney General Jeff
Landry is leading the state's lawsuit
against 17 drug companies.
Industry Meeting
For the first time in a decade, LOGA
will hold a joint conference with the
Louisiana Mid-Continent Oil & Gas Association, Price says.
"We are very excited to host this joint
annual meeting. We are looking forward
to becoming a unified voice in the energy
industry of Louisiana. This is a step in
the right direction. We think the annual
meeting will provide content that both
association memberships will find valuable.
There is a good bit of overlap between
the two associations, so it is very efficient
to hold a joint meeting," he asserts.
Briggs points out the meeting will
take place right before the legislative session opens, adding "We bring everybody
together and focus on the things that we
need to work on, and build momentum
as we head into that session."

To complement its social media site,
the association added a website dedicated
to political news in advance of the 2018
elections, Briggs says.
"LOGA received incredible response
about the new website," he says. "People
receive more information than ever before,
and it's available at their fingertips. The
association is planning on taking that
same sort of structure and launching a
legislative tracking website, so members
will be able to see the important legislation
LOGA is tracking and follow its progress.
For the bills that really matter, you will
be able to take action, including communicating with legislators to ask them to
support or oppose legislation. That is
under development now and should be
ready in time for the session."
Communicating with association members increasingly depends on social media
outlets, and LOGA is committed to spreading its messages through those new channels, Briggs says. The association hired
Kati Hyer as director of social media
and public relations.
"There are a lot of ways of connecting
