Stance on Climate Change

February 9, 2018

Speaking at a press conference in Lafayette, Louisiana, about coastal wetlands problems, Landry called climate change a “hoax,” the Daily Advertiser reported:¹⁰Claire Taylor. “La. AG Jeff Landry: Climate change ‘a hoax’,” Daily Advertiser, February 9, 2018. Archived .mp4 on file at DeSmog.

“If you’re trying to go somewhere in regards to … global warming or climate change, I think the facts absolutely stand out that it’s a hoax, ok,” Landry said.

“And when you go back and you look at the cycles that our Earth has had, has gone through, from a climate change—meaning naturally—over thousands and thousands of years, you see the same particular cycle.”¹¹Claire Taylor. “La. AG Jeff Landry: Climate change ‘a hoax’,” Daily Advertiser, February 9, 2018. Archived .mp4 on file at DeSmog.

Landry posted the following on Twitter the same day:

Pro-Life

Jeff Landry was endorsed by the pro-life Family Research Council, describing him as a “strong advocate for limited government, for individual liberties, and for traditional family values.”¹²“JEFF LANDRY IS THE ENDORSED PRO-LIFE CANDIDATE,” Jeff Landry Attorney General.

Landry spoke at a March 2012 March for Life:

Death Penalty

According to The Times-Picayune, Landry pushed to expand new methods of state executions to include “nitrogen gas, hangings, firing squads and electrocution and to add more secrecy around carrying out the death penalty in Louisiana.” This was following issues engaging a drug manufacturer that would supply the products needed to carry out executions.¹⁵Julia O’Donoghue. “Louisiana AG Jeff Landry pushes new execution options: gas, electrocution, firing squad, hanging,” The Times-Picayune, July 24, 2018.

Landry tweeted that he supported the death penalty:

Landry claimed there was resistance from Governor John Bel Edward when Landry had tried to expedite the execution process for those on death row:

“Our office has tried to work with the department of corrections to show them ways under which we could get these executions moving, and they have resisted,” Landry said. “And that resistance has come from the Governor’s office.” The governor denied those claims, KATC reported.¹⁶“AG Jeff Landry, Governor John Bel Edwards exchange words on the death penalty,” YouTube video uploaded by user “KATC,” July 19, 2018.

Key Quotes

August 7, 2018

Speaking at the Heartland Institute‘s America First Energy Conference (AFEC), Landry praised President Trump for discrediting mainstream media and for announcing that climate change is a “hoax”:¹⁷“VIDEOS – JEFF LANDRY KEYNOTE – AMERICA FIRST ENERGY CONFERENCE 2018,” The Heartland Institute, August 14, 2018. Archived .mp4 on file at DeSmog.

“[Trump] has completely discredited the mainstream media. He has, you know, turned the media’s, I guess hoax, of the fact that fossil fuels causing climate change on its head.”¹⁸“VIDEOS – JEFF LANDRY KEYNOTE – AMERICA FIRST ENERGY CONFERENCE 2018,” The Heartland Institute, August 14, 2018.

Landry also appears to confuse the concepts of long-term climate change and short-term or seasonal weather events:¹⁹“VIDEOS – JEFF LANDRY KEYNOTE – AMERICA FIRST ENERGY CONFERENCE 2018,” The Heartland Institute, August 14, 2018. Archived .mp4 on file at DeSmog.

“New Orleans is a prime example of climate change. If you stay here long enough, it’s gonna change. Not by mankind. It’s gonna rain, it’s gonna get real hot, it’s gonna get real cold, it’s gonna freeze. That’s climate change, right?”²⁰“VIDEOS – JEFF LANDRY KEYNOTE – AMERICA FIRST ENERGY CONFERENCE 2018,” The Heartland Institute, August 14, 2018. Archived .mp4 on file at DeSmog.

July 27, 2018

“ The next time you hear a congressional Democrat trash the president’s immigration policy or call for the end of ICE, dismiss it for what it is: irresponsible politics,” Landry wrote in an op-ed at the Daily Comet.²¹“Opinion: Public safety, not partisan politics,” Daily Comet, July 27, 2018.

Key Deeds

September 6, 2018

An article in The Times-Picayune suggested that AG Jeff Landry may not have taken all possible actions in using his authority to assist in an investigation of Catholic Church sex abuse.²³Julia O’Donoghue. “AG Jeff Landry says he has no authority to investigate Catholic church sex abuse,” The Times-Picayune, September 6, 2018. Archived October 25, 2018. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/0OxJs

“We don’t have authority to prosecute until a district attorney turns the authority over to us,” Ruth Wisher, spokeswoman for Landry, had said.

Roger Stetter, an attorney representing alleged victims of clergy abuse in New Orleans in civil litigation, said:

“He doesn’t need the permission of the Legislature to pursue this,” Stetter said. “He doesn’t think he can because he doesn’t want to do it.”

The Times-Picayune added: “Landry has had a sweeping view of his powers when it comes to other issues, pushing the envelope of his authority. He operated a special crime task force – with agents who arrested people – in New Orleans for about a year, though a federal judge said he did not have the power to do so.”

Landry responded to the article in a statement elaborating on how “the Attorney General is deeply offended by the Times-Picayune insinuations”:²⁴(Press Release). “Attorney General Jeff Landry Deeply Offended by False Insinuations in Times Picayune,” Louisiana State Attorney General’s Office, September 7, 2018. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/FbB59

“The headline and entire tone of the story smacked of blatant, religious bigotry,” he said. “As a father and a Catholic, I am deeply offended. This article by the Times Picayune is pure unadulterated religious bigotry which we have not seen in this State since the hey-day of the Ku Klux Klan.”²⁵Zack Ford. “Louisiana AG says he won’t investigate Catholic sex abuse, calls critics ‘bigots’,” ThinkProgress, September 12, 2018.

Archived October 25, 2018. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/ZVqTM

“As Louisiana’s chief legal officer, I have significant concerns that these junk suits could find a home here and have serious negative effects on our economy,” wrote Landry, a Republican. “While these types of public nuisance lawsuits have failed time and time again, it does not mean they cannot hurt Louisiana if they emerge. For the sake of our economy and the future of our workers and manufacturers, responsible elected officials must oppose these baseless lawsuits.” He added: “Any threat, including misguided lawsuits, that endangers a manufacturing industry employing one in seven Louisiana workers must be opposed.”²⁷Jeff Landry. “Landry: Climate lawsuits could endanger important Louisiana industries,” Daily Advertiser, September 4, 2018. Archived October 25, 2018. Archive.fo URL: https://archive.fo/ZVqTM

Several cities including New York and San Francisco had filed lawsuits against large oil companies such as BP, Exxon, and Chevron for damages due to climate change. While each of the cases had been dismissed, appeals were filed.²⁸Elizabeth Crisp. “AG Jeff Landry: Lawsuits against big oil companies over climate change would threaten Louisiana jobs,” The Advocate, September 6, 2018.

“To have the government inflict that type of pain unnecessarily was extremely disappointing,” Landry said. “And so, here we are trying to get the President to understand that you gotta start the Gulf of Mexico back.

Landry declared on C-SPAN that climate change was not a factor to coastal erosion in Louisiana. Researchers said Landry’s stance was not true, the KATC news station reported.

CALLER: “Mr. Landry, as the Attorney General of the state that is suffering the most from climate change— I’m standing right now on Lower Plaquemines Parish—how do you justify your decision to support President Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord?

March 2017

Landry was sued for failing to produce public records from his office with regards to communications with the oil and gas industry. A September 30 records request by Scarlett A. Martin of Indianapolis had sought correspondence between Landry or any member of his office and “any representatives of companies (and/or trade associations representing such companies) involved in the exploration for and production of hydrocarbons.”⁴²“AG Jeff Landry facing lawsuit over public records delay, hopes it isn’t a ‘political witch hunt‘,” The Advocate, March 29, 2017.

“Jeff Landry is breaking the law,” said Stephen Handwerk, Executive Director of the Louisiana Democratic Party. “No matter what the excuse is, the bottom line is that Jeff Landry is refusing to turn over public records. In 2015, Jeff Landry touted transparency, but as soon as he took office, he immediately began hiding important information from the public. Since he is going to such great lengths to hide these records from the public, the simple question is – what’s he hiding?”⁴³“RELEASE: Landry Sued For Breaking The Law,” Louisiana Democrats, March 30, 2017.

Landry’s office later handed over 6,235 pages of documents in response to the suit.
