Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry (R) called on lawmakers to oppose funding requests made by the New Orleans Saints for the Caesars Superdome after the team announced they will not offer refunds to ticketholders that choose to not be vaccinated, or do not provide proof of a negative coronavirus test at the gate, calling the policy “completely unacceptable.”
“Completely unacceptable, @Saints! Taxpayers should not continue to fund your projects with policies like this. I call on @LATreasury and my fellow Bond Commission members to oppose any request for the Dome until these ticket holders are refunded or given ability to opt out,” Landry tweeted Tuesday after the Saints made the announcement.
