"Every one of the 31 points in my campaign plan is included in this call," said Jindal. "We have had an historically inclusive process of meeting with every key stakeholder on ethics reform from sheriffs to district attorneys, local elected officials and legislators from all over the state and both sides of the aisle, good government groups, chambers of commerce organizations and others.
"If I would have told you months ago that I would be issuing a call today that included disclosure for elected officials at every level of government, capped meals, eliminated free tickets, and said legislators can't have a contract with the state, most would have said it could not be done. But we have done it. In this call today -- we have done all those items and more."
Among items outlined by the governor, is an online searchable database of lobbyist information including monthly reports on:
- Compensation ranges
- Subject matter of lobbying activity
- Business relationships with statewide elected officials, executive department heads, legislators and their spouses.
- Spending on spouses and dependant children of executive branch elected and appointed officials and legislators
- Expenditure totals by category.
