Congressman Ralph Abraham recently threw his hat into the ring for Governor. The congressman says Louisiana needs new leadership. "In education, healthcare, business climate, justice system or court reforms; we are dead last or maybe 49th out of 50. All of those things are critical to Louisiana" says Abraham.
Abraham is currently serving in congress but says running a campaign for governor will not interfere with his work in Washington. When asked how he will serve the 5th congressional district, Abraham says he will just have to stay focused and adjust while campaigning for governor.
