JUDGES: Requests that the Louisiana Supreme Court develop rules that prohibit judges from attending campaign events for other elected officials

This concurrent resolution (HCR 74) requests the Louisiana Supreme Court to create new rules prohibiting judges from attending campaign events for political candidates. It directly affects Louisiana judges by requiring them to avoid any appearance of endorsing candidates, which could violate Canon 7 of the Code of Judicial Conduct. The resolution cites concerns that social media photos of judges at campaign events might create the *appearance* of violating ethics rules, even if no endorsement occurs. The bill does not change existing law but asks the Supreme Court to develop specific rules to address this issue.
