Webcast: Discussing Louisiana’s economic future post-COVID-19, with Loren Scott, Sen. John Kennedy

While Louisiana’s economy certainly wasn’t firing on all cylinders prior to the coronavirus, mitigating the pandemic has seemingly ground business to a halt around the province. But what are the facts when it comes to the health of the economy and, perhaps more importantly, what’s the economic outlook for Baton Rouge and Louisiana as we move into the new normal?

U.S. Sen. John Kennedy and economist Loren Scott provided their insights and answers to those questions during Business written report’s most recent webcast.

Kennedy serves on the appropriations, banking, housing and urban affairs, budget, judiciary, and little business and entrepreneurship committees in the Senate. Scott is the president of his eponymous economic consulting and public speaking firm and is widely respected as one of Louisiana’s most knowledgeable economists.
