Tony is an avid hunter and fisherman who is deeply committed to preserving and protecting the wetlands that are so critical to the Louisianan way of life. It is his deep love of his state, as well as his calling to public service, that has led Tony to represent the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries in cases involving pipeline companies endangering our precious wetlands. For decades, Tony has protected communities throughout the greater Baton Rouge area, and he is now committed to doing the same for the natural beauty of our state.
