U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D., a Louisiana Republican and chairman of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, shared updates from his weekend activities in Louisiana through a series of social media posts.
On March 14, 2026, Cassidy commented on local weather and festivities by posting: “Usually, when @JimCantore comes to town, it means a storm is coming. Thankfully, he left the nasty weather at home today. We had a great time at the Wearin’ of the Green parade under clear blue skies! https://t.co/urpqicgEWL”.
The following day, March 15, 2026, Cassidy posted a link without additional comment: “https://t.co/kyxbiKWCja”.
Later that same day, Cassidy shared a culinary suggestion from north Louisiana: “A Shreveport pastor recommended putting collard greens in gumbo. Really good! https://t.co/luZCPvwoDl”.
