I have proposed raising the state minimum wage from its dismal $7.25/hour every year that I’ve been governor. It was an unacceptable minimum wage when I took office in 2016, and it’s downright immoral now in 2023 as we deal with inflation. #lagov #lalege https://t.co/llexloaRPX — PolitiTweet.org

Since I’ve been governor, I’ve been asking that we increase the state minimum wage from $7.25 an hour. It was an unacceptable wage when I took office in 2016. It's downright immoral in 2023. This year, state government will lead by example. #lagov #lalege https://t.co/xKcsp2IyNF — PolitiTweet.org

Just as importantly, she was a friend, mentor, and supporter of countless Louisianans who shared her passion to make Louisiana a better place. Our state benefited greatly from her life, work, and intellect. She will be dearly missed. #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

A graduate of SMU Law School, Leah was a founder and longtime executive director of what is now known as the Louisiana Association for Justice. Her visionary leadership resulted in her earning honors too numerous to list. #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Please join @FirstLadyOfLA and I in praying for the family of our friend Leah Saye Guerry, who passed away yesterday at the age of 89. Throughout her distinguished career, Leah was a determined advocate for the legal rights of Louisianans. #lagov https://t.co/bek1f3DpEA — PolitiTweet.org

Five years ago, I joined @LouisianaCPRA to cut the ribbon on the @LSU Center for River Studies. Since then, it has helped educate thousands of young people who will become the future leaders of our state’s coastal program. #lagov https://t.co/MabNrdND8y — PolitiTweet.org

For generations, the Gulf of Mexico and Louisiana have played a vital role in our nation’s energy independence. We intend to remain an essential party of the energy industry system well into the future. And we're doing it while diversifying and growing our economy. #lagov https://t.co/zjGNN0fqMB — PolitiTweet.org

I am asking the legislature to enhance safety on our college campuses through funding for better lighting, security cameras and more. They are our economic growth engines and their students are our future, and we must keep them safe. #lagov #lalege https://t.co/rhXcGsQ3K7 — PolitiTweet.org

As the only Gulf Coast state with a climate action plan, Louisiana is uniquely poised to be a leader in offshore wind. Offshore wind provides the opportunity for us to build off our existing skill set and experiences in the offshore oil and gas industry, creating jobs. #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

It’s been over 17 years since Hurricanes Katrina and Rita devastated the homes, schools, businesses, churches and infrastructure of our state. It’s been a long, hard road to recovery, and @HUDgov has been our partners all along the way. #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Last week’s announcement finally provides peace of mind to those Road Home applicants who still have outstanding obligations to the Road Home program, many of whom have no real way to meet those obligations. #lagov — PolitiTweet.org

Last week, I was honored to welcome @HUDgov @SecFudge back to Louisiana to mark the official end of the Road Home Program in a way that fulfills the state’s obligations to the nation for the generous funding that was provided for our recovery. #lagov https://t.co/9foqFE5hwK — PolitiTweet.org
