• Broadway South with Norman Robinson, hosting the Hot Seat
I escort Norman Robinson of WDSU TV through the Sanger and Lowe’s State Palace Theatres to shoot footage for an upcoming segment on 6 On Your Side.

8:00 PM
• Dinner with Representative Steve Scalise
Steve is one of the original authors of the film tax credits and agrees to become a co-author the Broadway South legislation. As a Republican, Rep. Scalise’s endorsement of Broadway South along with Democratic sponsor Rep. Jeff Arnold as co-author highlights bipartisan support for this initiative in the Louisiana legislature.
