Cassidy has a new 6 year term that runs through 2026, but Louisiana allows for recall of any elected official, except judges.

For statewide officials, it apparently requires 20% of registered voters to sign a petition:

This may be so but I’m pretty sure SCOTUS has prohibited the recall of anyone in Congress. Hope I’m wrong.

Not federal office holders. The Constitution provides that Senators are elected for a six-year term, and that only the Senate can expel one of its members.
