About Governor Jindal
Bobby
Jindal was sworn in as Governor of Louisiana on January 14, 2008.
Shortly after taking office, Governor Jindal called a Special Session to
address comprehensive
ethics reform, the cornerstone of his
election platform. Since the conclusion of the session, the Better
Government Association and the Center for Public Integrity announced
that Louisiana’s new ethics laws are among the best in the nation.
Additionally,
the Governor’s second Special Session eliminated burdensome taxes that
deterred investment in Louisiana and limited the growth of existing
Louisiana businesses.
Governor Jindal has put forth detailed plans
for reforming Louisiana’s health care, education, and transportation
systems, as well as for encouraging workforce development and continuing
recovery efforts in areas devastated by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, as
well as Hurricanes Gustav and Ike.
Following his graduation with
honors in biology and public policy from Brown, he attended Oxford
University in England as a Rhodes Scholar, having turned down admissions
to medical and law school at both Harvard and Yale. In 1994, Jindal
went to work for McKinsey and Company as a consultant for Fortune 500
companies before entering public service. In 1996, he was appointed
Secretary of the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals.
In
1998, Jindal was appointed Executive Director of the National Bipartisan
Commission on the Future of Medicare. As Executive Director, he was
responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Commission, whose work
continues to be the driving force behind much of the ongoing debate on
how to strengthen and improve Medicare.
Governor Jindal is the author of Leadership in Crisis, Regnery Press, November 15, 2010.
