The reason I know we can get there is because we are working with – not against – the energy sector that sustains so much of Louisiana’s economy. Oil and gas production in the Gulf of Mexico continues to be important to Louisiana’s success. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
By 2050, our goal is to reduce carbon emissions to net zero and to have invested $50 billion in rebuilding Louisiana’s coast. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
No state is more adversely impacted by climate change than Louisiana. But at the same time, no state is better positioned to be a leader in reducing carbon emissions and bolstering coastal resiliency. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
Another way we’ve established groundwork for a more resilient Louisiana is through the creation of a Climate Initiatives Task Force last year. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
I know that we still have a lot of work to do in order to improve health outcomes, but I can’t imagine how many more people would have died this past year if not for Medicaid expansion. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
Because of that decision, many more people have had access to a primary care physician and the ability to afford prescription medication in order to treat or control underlying conditions that make them more susceptible to COVID. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
It’s why 5 years ago I expanded Medicaid to the working poor in Louisiana. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
Through this work, we have safely re-opened our economy and are quickly making up the ground we lost during the pandemic. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
It’s why I created the Resilient Louisiana Commission to ensure that small businesses that have been devastated by this pandemic have a seat at the table and a path forward. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
That is why early on in the pandemic I established the Health Equity Task Force. It’s why we rolled out the Bring Back Louisiana campaign and are working to ensure all communities have access to the vaccine. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
They are the culmination of years of policies that our communities of color and low income populations have borne for generations. If we do not address these issues now, we are doing a great disservice to people who have already suffered so much. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
The pandemic has highlighted inequities that persist in our communities – especially when it comes to health outcomes. These inequities were not created overnight, nor will they be eliminated overnight. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
Like you, I want Mardi Gras parades to roll again. I want festivals to resume. I certainly don’t want to have to wear a mask all the time. But I don’t want post-pandemic Louisiana to look completely like pre-pandemic Louisiana - nor should it. Because we can do better. #LaSOTS https://t.co/27Yjx7d7kH — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
Tragedies like the ones we’ve faced often remind us of our shared humanity. But then things start to get back to normal, and we forget that for some, the road to recovery is much longer and more difficult. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
So this legislative session, let us challenge ourselves to envision NEW ways of making Louisiana BETTER for all of our citizens. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
Over the past year, we’ve been pushed to think outside the box. To work in new ways. Learn in new ways. Socialize in new ways. One thing is clear, we can absolutely do things differently. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
We’re not out of the woods yet, but we are moving forward. And that is what I want to talk to you about now. What’s next. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
We have a new Vaccine Hotline you can call to schedule your appointment or connect with a medical professional who can answer your questions. #LaSOTS https://t.co/A41XIOB5Yz — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
Over 28% of Louisianans—more than 1.3 million—have already begun their vaccine series. We need as many people as possible to be in that number as soon as possible to put this pandemic behind us. #LaSOTS https://t.co/E6nio01egD — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
She wants all patients to feel comfortable asking doctors about getting the vaccine so that they are able to make informed decisions about their own health that are based on facts. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
Dr. Jane Martin is a physician specializing in maternal-fetal medicine at Ochsner. Not only has she been educating patients and the public on the importance of getting vaccinated, Dr. Martin received both doses of the Pfizer vaccine while pregnant with her third daughter. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
That’s why you see doctors and nurses on the news reaching out to the public. So when you hear me say the shots are safe and effective, that’s not coming from me. That’s coming from doctors and scientists and epidemiologists. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
I know some of you have questions about the vaccines. That’s ok. Most of us, myself included, didn’t go to medical school. That’s why I have Dr. Joe Kanter with me at every COVID press conference. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
We have three extremely safe and effective vaccines that are the ticket to ending this pandemic, and on Friday of this week, we’ll open our first Federally supported Community Vaccination Center in Baton Rouge. What a difference a year makes! #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
But there IS hope. A couple weeks ago, we opened up COVID-19 vaccine eligibility to everyone 16 or older. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
I wish I could stand here today and say that COVID is behind us. We’re not quite there yet. That’s why we’re still wearing our masks and socially distancing and taking all the necessary precautions that we know work. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
For every story of loss, however, there has also been one of survival. Because Louisiana is a state full of unwavering faith and an enduring spirit. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
We are still working to pick up the pieces and make communities whole again. We will not stop rebuilding. We will not stop making Southwest Louisiana stronger than ever. #LaSOTS https://t.co/A532JPnELq — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
And Laura was the strongest hurricane to hit the state since at least the 1850s. Thousands of homes were destroyed and lives were turned upside down, again. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov
Unfortunately, COVID is not the only burden that 2020 brought us. Three devastating hurricanes made landfall in Louisiana - two of them, Laura and Delta, came ashore just a few miles apart in Southwest Louisiana. #LaSOTS — PolitiTweet.org
