First Extraordinary Session, 2011
HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTI ON NO. 11
BY REPRESENTATIVE DIXON
A CONCURRENT RESOLUTI ON
To urge and request the Louisiana Workforce Commission to become more efficient in
correspondence.
WHEREAS, both the United States of America and the state of Louisiana are
suffering a financial recession; and
WHEREAS, during these times of fiscal hardship, state agencies and Louisiana
citizens have had to cut spending wherever possible; and
WHEREAS, it has come to the attention of the members of the legislature, by reports
of constituents, that the correspondence from the Louisiana Workforce Commission,
specifically the Adjudication Support Unit, is excessive at times; and
WHEREAS, citizens have reported receiving numerous letters within a short time
frame, some duplicative in nature, which not only can be overwhelming for the recipient, but
is an enormous use of resources, including labor, paper, and postage.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Legislature of Louisiana does hereby
urge and request the Louisiana Workforce Commission, Adjudication Support Unit, to be
more conservative in its use of resources, sending as few letters as practicable within short
time frames.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a copy of this Resolution be transmitted to the
executive director of the Louisiana Workforce Commission.
