Baton Rouge — Receiving 77.4% of the vote, James A. Taylor, Sr., J.D., Ph.D., of Baton Rouge, has been re-elected to the TRSL Board of Trustees as a retiree representative. Results from the run-off election between Taylor and Nita Chambers of Alexandria were announced at the Board’s September meeting.

“I am grateful for the support I received and pledge to continue to help make TRSL the most effective and efficient retirement system in the country,” Taylor said. “I ask that all TRSL retirees continue to support their retirement system.”

Taylor retired from the St. Charles Parish Public Schools in 1998 after 30 years of service. He also has many years of service in higher education. His new four-year term on the board begins January 1, 2019.

The TRSL Board safeguards and manages the System assets held in trust to provide retirement income to retirees and beneficiaries.
