## Resource

New Orleans lawmakers defend their legislative efforts amid criticism from Governor Landry and Attorney General Murrill, highlighting behind-the-scenes negotiations that saved key positions and funding. They reduced proposed judge cuts from 23 to 9 and limited DA warrant cuts from 29 to 10, proving their ability to navigate tough political terrain. Vetoed bills, they argue, often reflect successful funding battles — and even vetoes can pave the way for future compromise. Despite public scrutiny, they insist their work strategically advanced the city’s interests, urging residents to appreciate the complexity of state-level policymaking and the ongoing need for dialogue as they prepare for the next session.
