Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

This week, we began answering your questions about COVID-19 at my daily media briefings. There are many great questions coming in, but sometimes we can't get to them all, so I wanted to sit down with you today to answer a few more of your questions. #lagov #lalege https://t.co/9amebJZT6m — PolitiTweet.org

We must continue to remain vigilant in the fight against COVID-19 by maintaining social distancing, practicing good hygiene and staying at home to stop the spread. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

Today, Louisiana confirmed more than 20,000 COVID-19 cases in the state and we have received confirmation that the coronavirus is in all 64 parishes, as we have long suspected is the case. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Weather forecasts and conditions change, but I urge the people of Louisiana to stay weather aware this weekend. Please continue to monitor local media outlets for weather-related information and updates. #lagov #lalege #lawx — PolitiTweet.org

We are looking at the chance of strong to severe thunderstorms with damaging winds, hail and possible tornadoes throughout many parts of the state starting today and lasting well into Sunday night. #lagov #lalege #lawx https://t.co/Bb6dwJR7n1 — PolitiTweet.org

Like the Easter story reminds us, there is darkness before the light. As we prepare ourselves for this sacred weekend, I want to offer up a prayer for the people of Louisiana as we get through this time before the light together. #lagov #lalege https://t.co/0pbPf2rZAq — PolitiTweet.org

It will also leverage our research capabilities and intellectual brainpower in a collective manner to tackle this daunting issue. I am asking our universities and research institutions to lead this effort. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

When we talk about health equity, we mean everyone has the opportunity to attain their highest level of health. The great thing is that the findings and recommendations made will help everyone better access quality care and improve health outcomes. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

We know that right now 70 percent of our deaths in Louisiana from coronavirus are African Americans. This is a disturbing trend and one that deserves our attention, which is why we are engaging a group of leaders right now while the crisis is still ongoing. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

Today, I created the Louisiana COVID-19 Health Equity Task Force, which will look at how health inequities are affecting communities that are most impacted by the coronavirus. #lagov #lalege 📰: https://t.co/VKAvmrzgiM — PolitiTweet.org

I ask the people of Louisiana to keep his family in your prayers – as well as the families of all who have suffered due to this illness. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Newly elected Rep. Reggie Bagala spent his life making his community and south Louisiana a better place. He was a devoted family man and public servant, and Rep. Bagala will long be remembered. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

Today, I ordered flags to be flown at half-staff over the Louisiana State Capitol until sunset on April 13, 2020, as an expression of respect for Rep. Reggie Bagala, who passed away from COVID-19 on Thursday. #lagov #lalege — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

We're encouraging communities to choose a restaurant, place an order and designate a neighborhood captain who can pick up all of the orders at once to reduce the number of people out. Stay home, stop the spread, and Get it to Geaux! #lagov #lalege #GetItToGeaux — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

We know our local restaurants are working hard to help feed people during the COVID-19 pandemic, and we want everyone to know that you can support your favorite Louisiana restaurant and Get it to Geaux. #lagov #lalege #GetItToGeaux https://t.co/ct2gw1EM94 — PolitiTweet.org
