U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D., posted a series of updates on his social media account between April 4 and April 5, 2026, sharing community moments and responding to an incident in Acadiana.
On April 4, Cassidy reflected on attending a performance with a local religious leader, writing: “Brother Anthony of Pentecostals of Alexandria. We sat together at the Messiah. Last performances are tonight and tomorrow. They will not have it next year. Can’t miss! https://t.co/irhnelJWiY”
The following day, he expressed sympathy for victims in the Acadiana region after an unspecified incident: “My prayers are with the victims, their families, and the entire Acadiana community today. Thank you to the Acadian Ambulance teams and local law enforcement for their quick response.
