I am deeply grateful to Col. Reeves for his decades of dedicated service as the consummate law enforcement professional committed to serving and protecting the people of Louisiana. Public safety has always been his highest priority. #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Louisiana remains in Phase 3, our successful mitigation measures remain in place, and I will continue to work with public health officials and experts to make decisions based on sound science and data. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

I am incredibly disappointed that at a time when Louisianans need to be coming together to protect each other from this virus, some legislators and the Attorney General are instead playing politics with people’s lives. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

It’s frankly sad and counterproductive to have to take this legal action as we are also responding not only to a pandemic but also recovering from two serious hurricanes and preparing for the possibility of another. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

Multiple people – including the author of the Legislature’s petition and many of its signers – have acknowledged the law’s unconstitutionality in both public and private conversations. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

Louisiana’s Constitution doesn’t allow only one chamber of the Legislature to overturn a public health emergency, and, even if it did, the petitioners did not properly consult the public health experts from the Louisiana Department of Health. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

In addition to the fact that getting rid of the mitigation measures that have proven to slow the spread of COVID and save lives is reckless and dangerous, the law being used is blatantly unconstitutional. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

Today, I filed a lawsuit in state court defending my COVID-19 public health emergency proclamation, which has been challenged by some members of the House of Representatives just as new COVID-19 cases reach a third spike across the country. https://t.co/2TyODVMmV5 #lagov #lalege https://t.co/emt50hQ8ki — PolitiTweet.org
