Kudos to @ShreveportMayor and Lake Charles Mayor Nic Hunter for starting a vaccination competition between their communities. The people of Lake Charles and Shreveport will both be winners because at the end of the day, they're helping us all win against COVID-19. #lagov
💥Attention #Shreveport & #LakeCharles💥 Most #covid19 vaccinations by the end of October? Mayor Perkins (@ShreveportMayor) & Mayor Hunter (@LakeCharlesCity) have issued a friendly challenge to find out.

I’m honored to be endorsed by these mayors as we all work to find creative solutions to our common struggles. Together, we will continue making progress, not just for Birmingham, but for cities across the country. Thank you for your support!
Mayor @Randallwoodfin is a man of character. He’s done an incredible job moving Birmingham forward and leading the city through this difficult time.
I’m proud to stand beside my brother and fellow Mayor.
Thanks for helping me get out the vote ahead of election day, @PerkinsforLA of Shreveport, LA and @ChokweALumumba of Jackson, MS! The progress we make together reverberates across the South and the country. Proud to work alongside you to continue leading our communities forward.

She’s the most selfless person I know and my entire life I’ve watched her embody hard work and sacrifice. Today marks the end of my mother’s 42 year career at SWEPCO. Her coworkers described her as God sent and I personally don’t know anyone who is more deserving of retirement.

Mayors @ChokweALumumba, @PerkinsforLA, @stevenlouisreed, @randallwoodfin & I joined forces to share why the #AmericanJobsPlan benefits the South coming out of a pandemic, and provides an opportunity to change economic trajectories of our respective cities. washingtonpost.com/opinions/… – at Little Rock, AR

“We need a modern plan of reconstruction that addresses systemic inequities disproportionately affecting Black and rural Americans,” write mayors @PerkinsforLA, @RandallWoodfin, @ChokweALumumba, @StevenLouisReed and @FrankScottJr in @WashingtonPost. #ICYMI washingtonpost.com/opinions/…
I teamed up with my fellow mayors @FrankScottJr, @randallwoodfin, @ChokweALumumba, and @stevenlouisreed to talk about what history and the pandemic can teach us about the road to reconstruction—and why we need the #AmericanJobsPlan

I authored an op-ed with my friend and fellow Mayor Nic Hunter about how @POTUS Biden’s #AmericanJobsPlan will help Louisiana cities build back stronger and smarter. It’s about roads, bridges, water, broadband, and RESILIENCY! #LaGov shreveporttimes.com/story/op…
Adrian Perkins retweeted
Infrastructure investment is not a partisan issue. As two Louisiana mayors from differing political parties, we support President Biden and Congress working together to address the issues that keep us and many others awake at night. #AmericanJobsPlan

Great to have y’all in Shreveport for the #BayouClassic!
Bayou Classic looked a little different this year; but it was still a great time! Thank you @ShreveportMayor and the City of Shreveport for the hospitality and bringing the state together for #BayouClassic2021.

Shreveport is #trending because of all of the great things taking place in our city for Port City Fest and Bayou Classic! #LoveShreveport
