House Bill No. by Representative Bourriaque proposes a constitutional amendment to Article VII, Section 14(B) of the Louisiana Constitution, which currently restricts the investment of public funds in a state infrastructure bank solely to transportation projects. The proposed amendment seeks to expand the authorized uses of these funds to include water, energy, resilience, and hazard mitigation projects. This change aims to enhance the state's ability to address various infrastructure needs beyond transportation.

The amendment will be submitted to voters for approval during the statewide election scheduled for November 3, 2026. If passed, it will allow for a broader application of public funds invested in the state infrastructure bank, thereby potentially improving the state's infrastructure resilience and capacity to manage environmental challenges.
