Troy A. Carter represents Louisiana’s Second Congressional District, and is a longtime public servant of the state of Louisiana. A graduate of Xavier University of Louisiana and the University of Holy Cross, he served in the Louisiana House, New Orleans City Council, and Louisiana State Senate before being elected to Congress in 2021.
