Event Description:
Join the Tangipahoa Chamber for our Breakfast featuring Public Affairs Research Council (PAR) President Dr. Steven Procopio. Four constitutional amendments will be on the March 29 ballot, including a proposal to rewrite Article VII, the tax and spending section of the constitution. Dr. Procopio will provide an overview of the proposed amendments, emphasizing Article VII, which is nearly as long as the rest of the constitution.
Dr. Steven Procopio joined the Public Affairs Research Council of Louisiana as Policy Director in 2014 where he guided PAR’s research agenda. In 2021, Steven was chosen to continue to lead PAR as the organization’s President. He previously served as Chief of Staff of the Louisiana Division of Administration where he worked on a number of transparency and fiscal issues.
Prior to working at the Division, Steven was the Director of Research and Accountability for the Lt. Governor’s office and the Department of Culture, Recreation and Tourism. In that role, he was responsible for researching Louisiana’s cultural economy and legislative initiatives.
Steven is also the original Director of the Louisiana State University Public Policy Research Lab, where he worked on a variety of policy issues for state agencies, nonprofits and academic researchers.
