More support for Louisiana brick manufacturers

The law makes brick manufacturing a priority industry in Louisiana. Louisiana Economic Development can help attract, keep, and expand brick-making facilities, within its existing legal powers and available funds. Support can cover site readiness, worker training, job creation, hiring, regulatory steps, and infrastructure coordination. Agency policies, guidance, and program rules must follow the Administrative Procedure Act and match existing economic development programs when appropriate. The law creates no separate funding source and specifies no funding amount or direct household payment.
