What a great day for a ribbon cutting for Metamor Institute, @PBRCNews' bariatric & metabolic clinic. Metamor’s bold response to addressing obesity will improve our residents' health, reduce Louisiana's health care burden & expand the state’s life sciences sector. #lagov https://t.co/WTcMxZCVEH — PolitiTweet.org

It's unacceptable that residents are more scared of their insurance companies than the storm itself. That's why my legislative agenda includes bills that will hold these companies accountable.   Read more in Jim Beam's @AmericanPress column. #lagov https://t.co/SGluq0Iuu2 — PolitiTweet.org

What an exciting day at @LSU as they unveiled a series of initiatives in cybersecurity & military studies. I am thrilled LSU has undertaken this effort, and I am heartened to know the next generation of cybersecurity experts & leaders will be made right here in Louisiana. #lagov https://t.co/txEZD3vxxu — PolitiTweet.org

There is not a person who can tell me with a straight face that a $7.25 minimum wage from 13 years ago is fair or acceptable, especially given the current rate of inflation. Our workers and families deserve better. #LaSOTS #lagov https://t.co/E5QgJwW1Ry — PolitiTweet.org

Louisiana’s women deserve equal pay for equal work. That’s why I am supporting legislation to enact pay transparency. It isn’t a silver bullet solution, but it’s a sensible measure that can make a meaningful difference in reducing the gender pay gap. #EqualPayDay #lagov #LaSOTS https://t.co/dmnFyifbcK — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

As I contemplate the work I want us to accomplish, I’m drawn to the Beatitudes, including my favorite: Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God. In a world that has too much hatred, strife, and currently war, let us be peacemakers. #LaSOTS #lagov https://t.co/sb4wHHLDZz — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll leave you with my favorites: Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God. In a world that has too much hatred, strife, and currently war, let us be peacemakers. #LaSOTS #lagov https://t.co/v7GgzsfTi5 — PolitiTweet.org

Our time in office is fleeting, but the decisions we make while here will last generations. I’m asking that we use this time wisely. #LaSOTS #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

As we enter this session, I want you to reflect on the people of this great state. Our neighbors, as their spirits are broken and they mourn two years of hardships. Our children, with their meek and pure hearts. Our moms, the most merciful and blessed of all. #LaSOTS #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

Those lessons have stayed with me. And as I contemplate the work I want us to accomplish in the last two years of this term, I’m drawn to Christ’s Sermon on the Mount and the Beatitudes. You all know them, but here are a few of my favorites… #LaSOTS #lagov https://t.co/OnzNhETfmI — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

As I think you all know, my faith is very important to me. It is the foundation that guides me as I strive every day to become a better leader and a better person. Growing up, I believe I had the hardest catechism teacher there was…my mom. #LaSOTS #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

You know the old saying “if these walls could talk”? Well, these walls DO talk. History remembers what happens in this building. And the issues we spend the most time on signal to the public what we value the most. So I ask: What do you value most? Who do you value most? #LaSOTS https://t.co/1lTgUpX92N — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

Some of the bills being brought up this session do nothing to make lives better. Nothing to continue moving us forward. They only serve to divide us. And frankly, some are reminiscent of a dark past that we should learn from, not relive. #LaSOTS #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

And so do women. I am also supporting legislation to enact pay transparency. It isn’t a silver bullet solution, but it’s a sensible measure that can make a meaningful difference in reducing the gender pay gap and that will benefit families that need it most. #LaSOTS #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Gov. John Bel Edwards @LouisianaGov

Finally, I can’t leave this podium without yet again making a plea for you to do the right thing and raise the minimum wage and reduce the gender pay gap. #LaSOTS #lagov — PolitiTweet.org
