In April 2018, Landry announced that he will lead a major fund-raising effort on behalf of conservative candidates running in 2019 for the Louisiana State Senate. Headed by [[John Alario]], a [[Moderate Republican]] from Jefferson Parish in [[suburb]]an New Orleans, formerly allied with Governor [[Edwin Edwards]], the Senate has a Republican majority, but many Democratic initiatives win approval in the chamber, and conservative measures are often killed in committee. Landry said that too many of the current senators are "Republican In Name Only" or [[RINO]]s. He also noted a high rate of turnover is certain in the Senate because of term limits.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.thenewsstar.com/story/news/2018/04/27/see-how-jeff-landry-plans-transform-la-senate/557314002/|author=[[Greg Hilburn]]|title=See how Jeff Landry plans to transform the Louisiana Senate|publisher=''The Monroe News-Star''|date=April 27, 2018|accessdate=April 28, 2018}}</ref>

In May 2018, Landry joined the attorneys general of six other states, [[Alabama]], [[Arkansas]], [[Nebraska]], [[South Carolina]], [[Texas]], and [[West Virginia]],  in a lawsuit which seeks to overturn permanently the [[DACA]] or "dreamers" immigration policy, which was launched by executive order of then President [[Barack H. Obama]]. The program protects from deportation young undocumented immigrants who came to the United States as children.
