COMMENDATIONS: Commends and congratulates Randolph "Randy" Edwards and the YouthCUE for their service with youth choral music and church music ministry.
This is a ceremonial resolution (not a bill), passed by the Louisiana Senate to honor Randolph "Randy" Edwards. It commends Edwards for his 35+ years as Founder and President of YouthCUE, a nonprofit that supports youth choirs across 24 states through festivals, educational programs, and musical productions. The resolution formally recognizes his contributions to youth choral music and church ministry, including his work with over 600 choirs and his publications. It has no binding effect or policy changes - it is purely an honorary gesture.
