(AP) — After months as one of the national Republican Party’s chief standard-bearers, Gov. Bobby Jindal asked state lawmakers Monday for a show of bipartisanship as Louisiana grapples with budget woes that threaten education programs and health care services. “It’s important that we come back together to do what is best for Louisiana. The solutions won’t be Republican or Democratic solutions. They won’t be administration solutions. They won’t be legislative solutions. They need to be Louisiana solutions,” Jindal told a joint meeting of the House and Senate, on opening day of the regular legislative session.
