House Bill No. by Representative Travis Johnson amends the Louisiana ethics code to allow legislators to accept complimentary reasonable transportation to foreign countries under specific conditions. The bill introduces new legal language that defines "reasonable transportation" for legislators to include travel organized primarily for trade, cultural, diplomatic, educational, or humanitarian purposes, provided that the travel is sponsored by the government of the foreign country or by a civic, nonprofit, educational, or political organization.

This legislation retains existing provisions that govern the acceptance of reasonable transportation by public servants, which includes requirements for disclosure of transportation expenses. The new provision expands the scope of acceptable transportation for legislators, aligning it with similar allowances for domestic travel related to educational, informational, or public speaking engagements.
