An insurance industry group is asking Louisiana lawmakers to work out the differences between two bills establishing stronger building codes in the waning days of the state legislative special session.
With the special session scheduled to end tomorrow, the National Association of Mutual Insurance companies sent a letter to state Sen. Ken Hollis, R-Metairie, and Rep. Gil Pinac, D-Crowley. Sen. Hollis is the author of Senate Bill 44, and Rep. Pinac authored House Bill 76.
