The Louisiana Board of Ethics will be required to broadcast its monthly public meetings starting in January under a new state law.

The law, sponsored by Rep. Steven Jackson, D-Shreveport, will require the meetings to be available live through internet streaming or television. Recordings of the meetings will be stored for at least two years in an online archive reached through the ethics board’s website.
