(AP) — The cost of a Louisiana driver’s license climbed $15 Monday, and lawmakers questioned the jump in price, which nearly doubled the charge to drivers.
A new or renewed basic license now costs $36.50 for four years, up from $21.50, under the price hike announced by the Louisiana State Police less than two weeks ago.
Sen. Vitter picks up Republican challenger in re-election
ALEXANDRIA (AP) — U.S. Sen. David Vitter has picked up a Republican challenger for his re-election bid, a first-time office-seeker who manages a garden center in Alexandria.
