Chris Holder for US Senate (Louisiana)
About this campaign
Dear Friends and Constituents, As we approach the next election cycle, I believe it’s time for a change in our state’s representation in the U.S. Senate. Here’s why I believe I would serve our state better than Senator Bill Cassidy: **1. Commitment to Local Issues:** – I understand the unique challenges facing Louisiana, from coastal erosion to economic diversification. My focus would be on crafting legislation that directly benefits our state, ensuring that federal resources are effectively used for infrastructure, education, and healthcare improvements. **2. Transparency and Accountability:** – There’s been a lot of talk about the need for transparency in government. I pledge to be open about my decisions, votes, and the rationale behind them. My office will be accessible, with regular town halls and an active presence on social media to keep you informed and engaged. **3. Economic Development:** – Louisiana needs a senator who not only recognizes the importance of industries like petrochemicals and tourism but also looks towards the future. I will push for policies that foster innovation, entrepreneurship, and sustainable industries, ensuring long-term prosperity for our state. **4. Healthcare Advocacy:** – With a background in understanding the complexities of healthcare, not just from a policy standpoint but from a practical one, I believe I can work more effectively with both parties to reform healthcare. This includes making healthcare more affordable and accessible, especially in rural areas of Louisiana. **5. Education Reform:** – Education is the foundation of our future. I will advocate for better funding for public schools, support for higher education institutions, and initiatives aimed at vocational training that aligns with our economic needs. My goal is to ensure that every child in Louisiana has the opportunity to succeed. **6. Environmental Stewardship:** – Our state faces unique environmental challenges. I would prioritize legislation that helps combat climate change effects specific to Louisiana, like sea-level rise and hurricane resilience, while also protecting our natural resources and promoting sustainable practices. **7. Bipartisan Approach:** – The current political climate needs more bridge-building, not walls. I commit to working across the aisle to find common ground where possible because effective legislation often requires compromise and mutual respect. **8. Representation for All:** – Louisiana is diverse, and its senator should reflect that diversity in thought, policy, and advocacy. I aim to represent every citizen, ensuring that minority groups, rural communities, and urban areas all have a voice in Washington. **9. Experience and New Perspectives:** – While I respect Senator Cassidy’s service, I bring a fresh perspective coupled with experience in areas critical to Louisiana’s future. I’ve engaged with local communities, businesses, and have a track record of public service that I believe prepares me well for this role. **10. Integrity and Ethics:** – In times where public trust in government is waning, I commit to upholding the highest standards of integrity and ethics. This means fighting for what’s right for Louisiana, not just following party lines. In conclusion, I believe that Louisiana deserves a senator who not only understands our state’s unique needs but also has the drive and vision to address them. I am ready to serve, to listen, and to act not just for a segment of our population, but for all of us. Let’s move forward together towards a better, more prosperous Louisiana. Thank you for considering me as your next U.S. Senator. Sincerely, Chris Holder for Senate 2026
