Louisiana lawmakers have edged closer to inserting themselves into the decision-making of high school sports after parents criticized the state athletic association’s handling of the coronavirus outbreak. A proposal would add two lawmakers to the governing board of the Louisiana High School Athletic Association, the private institution that regulates two dozen sports. Lawmakers say they were inundated with complaints from parents unhappy with the association’s delays in starting Louisiana’s football season until this month. A House committee advanced the measure to the House floor without objection Wednesday. The Senate has voted 30-4 for the proposal.
