The House made its feelings about the Governor’s public health emergency restrictions known, Speaker Clay Schexnayder’s resolution to terminate the pandemic emergency declaration after the session ends won approval. Haughton Representative Doddie Horton says it would roll back everything put into place by the Governor.
"You are attempting to give us immediate relief from these mandates which may have once been necessary months ago but no longer seem to be."
Abita Springs Representative Larry Frieman brought a bill in response to concerns from colleagues that the wholesale elimination of a public health emergency declaration would result in the loss of federal funding.
