			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>HB292 by Rep. Pugh (school board term limits)</strong> passed the Senate yesterday with not a single vote to spare!  The count was 20-16, and you can see how your senators voted <a href="http://legis.la.gov/billdata/streamdocument.asp?did=804409">here</a>.  We will all have a chance to vote on this issue at the polls in November.  The bill heads to the governor’s desk for signature.</p>
<p>TODAY, <strong>HB293 by Rep. Harrison (repeal bus driver tenure)</strong> is expected to be debated on the Senate floor.  Sen. Appel will be handling this bill on behalf of Rep. Harrison.  It is sixth on the list of House Bills, and the Senate convenes at 1pm.</p>
<p><strong>SCR99 by Sen. Appel (the MFP resolution)</strong> has been re-committed to House Appropriations Committee—so it seems there will be one final committee vote before heading to the House floor.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Jefferson Parish businesses are asked to review their re-entry placard inventory to ensure that their business staff has the placards necessary to return as quickly as possible to Jefferson Parish following any evacuation that may occur during the 2012 hurricane season.</p>
<p>If your business received re-entry placards, please review each placard to determine if it is still valid.  If your placards have expired, please log-in to the Jefferson Parish Re-Entry Placard Program site at <a href="http://www.jumpstartjefferson.com">www.jumpstartjefferson.com</a> and select “Enter the Jumpstart Jefferson Re-Entry Application Process”.</p>
<p>The Jefferson Parish Re-Entry Placard Program has been updated and now shares a common database with our regional parishes.  The new database means that all businesses renewing or updating placards, even if you had a previous account, MUST set-up a new account by selecting “Click Here to Get Started”.</p>
<p>If you have a valid account that was updated or created in 2011, you may select the tab “Already Have an Account” to continue with your request.  Remember the importance of keeping your username and password on file so that you can update and re-enter your account in the future.  Also, please remember to keep your account updated with the most current information.</p>
<p>Should you need assistance using the website, please click on the Email the Program Director link in the upper right corner for assistance.   For more information, please contact Charlie Hudson or Karen Daviss with the Jefferson Parish Emergency Management Department at 504-349-5360.</p>
