Louisiana University Tuition Amendment (2012)

Not on Ballot
This measure was not put on an election ballot

The Louisiana University Tuition Amendment did not make the November 6, 2012 statewide ballot in Louisiana as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment. This measure would have reduced the Legislature's control on university tuition. The amendment would have reduced the Legislature's involvement by exempting fees and tuition for public post-secondary education from requirements for imposing a new or increasing an existing tax or fee. The bill was sponsored by Rep. Joe Harrison as House Bill 299.^[1]
