☕️ In the amount of time it takes you to get a cup of coffee, you can fill out the census. Every Louisianan needs to be counted in the 2020 Census before the September 30 deadline. For more information, visit https://t.co/87kqGVcLSz or call 844-330-2020. #LouisianaCounts #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks, @Coach_EdOrgeron! There is no doubt that 2020 has been turbulent, but one bright spot that the people of Louisiana and I take comfort in is the @LSUfootball Tigers winning the National Championship. #GeauxTigers #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday, we released a PSA from Louisiana native @JonBatiste encouraging everyone to do their part in slowing the spread of COVID-19. It is going to take a team effort, which is why we’ve released some PSA’s to highlight the importance of wearing a mask. #lagov #lalege https://t.co/c5G5KifTGf — PolitiTweet.org

This is a temporary solution, as funds are limited, and I am still calling on Congress to act. However, as soon as these funds are available to us, we will move quickly to pay them out. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

While all of the details are not yet available, we are cautiously optimistic that we will be able to provide an additional $1,200 a month to qualified people on unemployment. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

Last night, we received helpful guidance from the federal government that we believe allows us to use the total amount of money the state is paying in unemployment funds as cost share to draw down the additional $300 per qualified applicant. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

Today, I announced that Louisiana will pursue an option under President Trump’s executive order that it believes will allow around 454,000 eligible unemployed people to get $300 a week in additional federal assistance. #lagov #lalege https://t.co/RUCXkPLSku — PolitiTweet.org
