Maybe he supported the raises behind the scenes? I don't know. But since you referenced the vote, I posted it for you and everyone to see. Page Cortez voted against the legislative pay raises, as did the rest of the Acadiana delegates in the State House. - RCajunrunner Tue, 07 Jun 2011 10:13:02 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8424-hardy-joins-powerful-house-appropriations-committee#comment-18475 I suppose that the next b.s. you will spout is that Cortez voted against the sale of prisons proposed by Piyush Jindal. Oh wait! Of the three from Acadiana on the House Appropriations Committee, Cortez and Simone Champagne both voted in favor of selling state prisons to private companies. Hardy, again, stood fast and voted against the sale and, by doing so, voted for working people. Again. - The way it is.

House Reps from Acadiana Delegation who voted YES on payraise: None. All voted NO. Senators from Acadiana Delegation who voted YES: Butch Gautreaux Eric LaFleur Mike Michot http://www.legis.state.la.us/billdata/byinst.asp?sessionid=08RS&billid=SB672&doctype=VOTE - RCajunrunner Mon, 06 Jun 2011 19:34:46 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8424-hardy-joins-powerful-house-appropriations-committee#comment-18446 Dats right um huum, um huum, Cortez and Michot wantin to stay on that teat longer, rather than go get a real job. - NORTHSIDIAN SHOTGUN Mon, 06 Jun 2011 08:18:29 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8424-hardy-joins-powerful-house-appropriations-committee#comment-18424 Excuse yourself. You are wrong. Cortez supported the pay raise in conjunction with his close friend and fraternity brother, Mike Michot. Do your homework and check the votes. As for Robideaux, if he supposedly led "pretty much every member of the Acadiana area House delegation to vote against it," he's not much of a leader. Check your vote tally on who from the Acadiana area delegation voted against it. Cortez supported it, and Michot was the one of the main voices for it. LIke I said, do your homework and get your facts straight. - The way it is.

Cortez was a strong opponent of the pay raise and voted against it. In fact, Representative Robideaux led pretty much every member of the Acadiana area House delegation to vote against it. - Excuse Me...

He is an independent thinker just as Speaker Tucker has proven he is by appointing Ricky to the committee. Rickey is not afraid to ask questions and above anything will represent the needs of the citizens. - Brenoland Thu, 02 Jun 2011 16:51:22 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8424-hardy-joins-powerful-house-appropriations-committee#comment-18353 According to Neutral Party, Rickey Hardy is out of his league.I may agree, Floyd Johnson is out of the DA office he will be headed for federal prison. Their come Chris Williams, Walter Guillory and Porch Evans and many of the LHA and OHA employees and folks that were receiving band instruments will be meeting up with Floyd Johnson. I rather be were Rickey Hardy is than in the league Floyd Johnson is in. Which is the league of Federal Bureau of Prisons. Dr. Williams will change his name to Dr. Kim. Porch knows how to adjust she has a long stint of criminal behavior she has been in and out. Oh Rickey Hardy stay in your league and out of the criminal judical system. - OUT OF FEDERAL BUREAU OF PRISON Thu, 02 Jun 2011 16:13:56 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8424-hardy-joins-powerful-house-appropriations-committee#comment-18338 Hardy is a Democrat appointed by a Republican to serve on Appropriations with Cortez and Champagne. Both Republicans. That's quite a feat. Cortez went around thumping his chest for the legislative pay raise and now looks like a run away fool. Hardy never did support the pay raise and, in fact, voted against it. Champagne is a nice lady, but not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Hardy has proven time and again, if you underestimate him, he will chew you up. The man is honest, hardworking, supports progressing the education of our young people, and is fiscally intelligent. neutral party, go back to sleep. - The way it is.

Our previous District 44 Rep. was in charge of windmills in the Gulf. At least I know Hardy won't steal or squander taxpayer money. - yesidoknow Thu, 02 Jun 2011 14:01:36 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8424-hardy-joins-powerful-house-appropriations-committee#comment-18320 Ricky this was a set up now you are sir out of your league.Your grand standing and petty politics will not go over well here.I know sir this has crossed your mind Mr Hardy you will be shown to be the biggest looser. - neutral party Thu, 02 Jun 2011 13:07:13 +0100
