As part of our Chamber’s ongoing efforts to keep the community informed, District Attorney Collin Sims of the 22nd Judicial District Court recently joined Newell Normand on The Newell Normand Show on WWL Radio. This monthly interview opportunity gives Chamber members and residents insight into timely issues affecting our parish.
During the conversation, Sims highlighted the significant challenges facing St. Tammany Parish’s criminal justice system. He shared findings from recent financial reviews and discussed ongoing efforts to identify both short- and long-term solutions to sustainably fund the system.
The interview emphasized the importance of informed dialogue around public safety, fiscal responsibility and long-term community sustainability—topics the Chamber continues to monitor and support through advocacy and engagement with local and state leaders.
