House Bill No. by Representative Carpenter aims to amend the regulations surrounding charter school governing bodies in Louisiana. Specifically, it introduces a new provision under R.S. 17:3992(D)(3) that prohibits members of a charter school's governing body, which has been reconstituted due to specific violations, from serving in any other public office. This measure is intended to ensure that individuals who have been part of a governing body that failed to meet certain standards or committed violations cannot hold dual roles that may conflict with their responsibilities to the charter school.

The bill retains existing laws regarding charter school revisions and renewals, including the conditions under which a governing body may be reconstituted, such as financial mismanagement or failure to meet accountability standards. The proposed law emphasizes the importance of maintaining integrity within charter school governance by preventing individuals from holding public office while serving on a reconstituted governing body. The bill will take effect upon the governor's signature or after the designated time for gubernatorial action if not signed.
