The 2025 legislative session has come to a close, and with it, Louisiana enters a new era of economic possibility.

The team at Louisiana Economic Development entered this legislative session riding a wave of historic wins: Meta’s data center in Richland Parish, Hyundai’s first North American steel plant in Donaldsonville and major liquid natural gas investments in both the southeast and southwest corners of the state. We closed out this year’s session having announced $62 billion in new capital investment across the state since Gov. Jeff Landry took office last year.
