"While the Governor disagrees with the Courtβs ruling and maintains that his orders were both necessary and lawful, he is accepting of it. Each and every action Gov. Edwards took throughout the COVID pandemic was done with the goal of protecting the publicβs health and saving lives," said Christina Stephens Deputy Chief of Staff for Communications and Special Projects.
Stephens also said, "Edwards has always recognized the importance of places of worship during COVID, which is why they were never closed while the public health emergency was in place." She also noted he worked closely with faith leaders throughout the pandemic and encouraged them to hold services as safely as possible to protect their congregations.
While acknowledging the progress made against COVID, she continued, "we must never forget the more than 17,000 Louisianans who have died from the virus nor those who were either hospitalized or suffered serious illness as a result of it.
