A Strong Voice for Louisiana’s Commercial Casino Industry
Advocating For Louisiana Communities
The Louisiana Casino Association (LCA) is the unified voice of the state’s commercial casino industry, committed to advocating for policies that promote growth, stability, and integrity across Louisiana’s gaming landscape. We work tirelessly to ensure that our industry remains a powerful component within the state’s economic landscape. The Louisiana Casino Association exists not only to protect and promote the interests of our members, but to ensure the continued strength of an industry that fuels economic progress for all of Louisiana. development, tourism, and community investment throughout the state.
Legislative Engagement
The LCA actively engages with state lawmakers, regulators, and community leaders to shape fair and effective public policy. We monitor legislation, lobby, provide expert testimony, and collaborate with decision-makers to promote a business climate that supports sustainable growth for the gaming industry. Our advocacy efforts help ensure that Louisiana remains competitive with neighboring states while protecting jobs, revenue, and long-term investment.
Economic Representation
Commercial casinos generate billions in annual economic impact, support tens of thousands of jobs, and contribute more than three-quarters of a billion dollars in state and local tax revenue. The LCA advocates for policies that protect these contributions and reinforce the casino industry’s vital role in funding public services such as education, healthcare, and infrastructure. In many communities, casinos serve as economic anchors, attracting visitors, revitalizing downtown areas, and spurring additional commercial development.
Promoting Responsible Regulation
We support regulatory frameworks that are transparent, consistent, and enforce high standards of compliance and integrity. By working closely with the Louisiana Gaming Control Board and other state agencies, the LCA helps ensure that casino operations meet the strictest ethical and legal standards.
Community Advocacy
Beyond the gaming floor, the LCA through its members champions causes that matter to the communities our members serve. Whether it’s local economic revitalization, workforce development, or charitable giving, our members are committed to making a positive difference—and we advocate for public policies that amplify that impact.
