Ralph Abraham

Current Position: US Representative of LA District 5 since 2015
Affiliation: Republican
Candidate: 2021 US Senator

This is his first publicly held office after spending most of his life as a practicing physician, veterinarian, business owner, farmer, pilot and veteran.

Dr. Abraham is a member of the House Armed Services Committee, a post he will use to advocate for America’s men and women who serve in our military. He will also prioritize Louisiana’s military instillations, including Fort Polk, Barksdale Air Force Base and the Naval base in Belle Chasse.

Dr. Abraham also serves on the Agriculture Committee. The 5th District is one of the largest row crop districts in the nation, and many of the district’s farmers raise livestock.  Dr. Abraham has spent a lifetime working on his farm, building miles of fences, driving open-cab tractors, herding cattle and breaking wild horses. He understands firsthand the hard work that America’s farmers put in daily.
