2007

In the nonpartisan blanket primary held on October 20, 2007, the incumbent Democratic representative, Sydnie Mae Maraist Durand, did not seek reelection.

In a two-candidate field, Mills, then a Democrat himself, won outright by a wide margin over a fellow Democrat, Marie Etienne of St. Martin Parish, 12,034 (84 percent) to 2,237 (16 percent).

2008

In 2008 and 2009, Mills received a 100 percent rating from the Louisiana Right-to-Life Federation.

He has been rated 69 percent by the Louisiana Association of Business and Industry.

2009

The Louisiana Family Forum in 2009 rated him at 89 percent.

2010

Mills guided to passage in 2010 legislation to permit pharmacists to administer medication therapy management services to patients in Louisiana.

The interest group, the National Association of Chain Drug Stores, supported the legislation.

The bill was signed on June 25, 2010, by then Governor Bobby Jindal.

The measure authorizes the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals to create an MTM pharmacy program.

In 2010, Mills joined several legislative colleagues in switching allegiance from the Democrats to the Republicans.

Others who made the switch in December 2010 are Representative Noble Ellington of Winnsboro and State Senators John Alario of Westwego in Jefferson Parish and John R. Smith of Leesville in Vernon Parish.

Mills polled 12,812 votes in the special Senate election, or 60 percent of the total.

The runner-up was Simone B. Champagne of Jeanerette, another recent Republican convert and a state representative from Iberia Parish, who received 4,040 votes (19 percent).

2011

Two Republicans ran in an April 2, 2011, special election to fill the nine months remaining in Mills' House term.

St. Martin Parish councilman Mike "Pete" Huval defeated St. Martinville city councilman Craig Prosper, 58 to 42 percent.

Mills held the title of "newest Louisiana state senator" for only a month.

Jonathan W. Perry of Kaplan won a special election in District 26 on February 19, 2011 and became the newest state senator at that point.

2015

Champagne campaigned as a "Reagan Republican" and had the open support of U.S. Senator David Vitter; she returned the favor by endorsing Vitter for governor in 2015.

2018

In 2018, Legislative Auditor Daryl Purpera said that the potential exists for fraud involving hundreds of millions of dollars in Medicaid funds.

"Let's understand our risks and exposure and what we can do to mitigate it," Mills told his committee.

Purpera earlier said that Medicaid had been "run kind of willy-nilly, loosey-goosey” by the Louisiana Department of Health. Purpera's warning was echoed by U.S. Senator John N. Kennedy and state Attorney General Jeff Landry as well as some state legislators. In a press release, Senator Kennedy said that the public will "happily pay for your doctor if you are too poor to be sick.

I'm proud of that.

But I'm neither happy about nor proud of the Medicaid fraud tolerated" by the Department of Health. The audits do not specify any specific fraud but mention a "risk group."

Mills was the deciding vote in block a bill by Representative Gabe Firment from making it to the Senate floor that would have banned minors from receiving gender-affirming care.

Mills previously served on the St. Martin Parish Council.

He and his wife, Deborah K. Mills, reside in St. Martinville but have business interests throughout the parish.
