Citizens for a New Louisiana is making government more transparent, one parish at a time. Will you become a part of the solution?
Critical Acclaim
Acadiana Advocate
Citizens, whose executive director is ... Michael Lunsford, is a conservative "good government" operation that started in Lafayette and is expanding across the state. Its latest crusade is pushing for tighter controls on the books and other materials minors are allowed to access in public libraries.
National Public Radio
Lunsford spent years raising the heat leading a stealthy but steady campaign that replaced members of the library board who, from his perspective, were not quite on board.
Lynette Mejia
"[Citizens for a New Louisiana] Stacking these boards is, like, antithetical to the democratic process."
The Advocate
Citizens for a New Louisiana has been systematically placing conservatives on volunteer commissions such as the Lafayette Parish Library Board of Control and Bayou Vermilion District, where they now have majority control.
WRNO
A poll published by Citizens for a New Louisiana, showed state voters have an especially negative view of the legislature.
