Stop Act 84: Grandfather New Parties Like America Party Under Old Louisiana Rules Before A
The Issue
I want to stop Louisiana's Act 84 from blocking new political parties like the America Party by raising recognition requirements to 5,000 voters and $5,000 starting Aug 1, 2025. Demand the SOS grandfather in parties filing by July 31 under old rules (1,000 voters/$1,000) and urge voters to register as "Other: America" now to hit the threshold! Break the Uniparty—join the fight for fiscal responsibility and innovation
Louisiana's Act 84, signed by Governor Jeff Landry, is set to crush grassroots political movements by raising the bar for new party recognition from 1,000 registered voters and a $1,000 fee to a staggering 5,000 voters and $5,000 starting August 1, 2025. This anti-competitive law protects the Republican/Democrat Uniparty's grip on power, making it nearly impossible for innovative alternatives like the America Party—launched by Elon Musk on July 5, 2025—to take root in our state.
As the founder of the America Party's Louisiana chapter in Shreveport, this hits home for me. Inspired by Musk's vision for a centrist party representing the "80% in the middle" with focuses on fiscal responsibility, cutting government waste and graft, advancing innovation, green energy, and embracing crypto like Bitcoin as a hedge against fiat currency issues, I jumped in to build local support. We've already got voters registering as "Other: America" to hit the old threshold, but Act 84 threatens to bury us in bureaucracy just as we're gaining momentum. This isn't abstract—it's about my freedom (and yours) to challenge the establishment that's failed us with endless spending and corruption. If we don't push back now, real change gets locked out, and Louisiana stays stuck under the same old system.
The broader stakes are huge: Musk has vowed to primary Republicans who backed wasteful bills and back America Party candidates in 2026 midterms. But in Louisiana, this law could prevent us from even getting on the ballot, splitting votes and weakening the fight against the Uniparty. We demand the Secretary of State (SOS) grandfather in parties like ours that file by July 31 under the old rules—allowing recognition with 1,000 voters and $1,000. Plus, urge every Louisianan to register as "Other: America" at geauxvote.com right now to help us meet the goal before the deadline.
Sign this petition to tell Governor Landry and the SOS: Stop blocking new voices! Let the America Party thrive and bring fiscal smarts, tech-forward policies, and true representation to Louisiana. Together, we can break the barriers and build a freer, more innovative America. Join the movement
