SPECIAL DAY/WEEK/MONTH: Designates March 23, 2026, as CODOFIL Day at the state capitol
This bill designates March 23, 2026, as CODOFIL Day at the Louisiana state capitol to recognize the Council for the Development of French in Louisiana. It directly affects the CODOFIL organization, which promotes the French language and culture within the state. The resolution formally acknowledges CODOFIL's contributions to Louisiana's cultural identity and economic development through its work in education, tourism, and international partnerships. This is a commemorative measure that honors the agency's six decades of service rather than implementing new policy changes.
