Kennedy, Alphonse the alligator wish Louisianians a Merry Christmas

by Minden Press-Herald

“I, along with my wife, Becky, my son, Preston, and our beloved dogs, Lily Grace and Charlie, want to wish you and your family peace and hope and joy during this Christmas season. God bless you all, and Merry Christmas—from both me and Alphonse!”

WASHINGTON – Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) today looked back on another year shared with Louisianians and sent a special Christmas message to everyone in the state.

“God has blessed me in so many ways, but getting to call Louisiana ‘home’ is one of the blessings I love most,” said Kennedy, alongside Alphonse the alligator, who is also a native Louisianian.

“There is no question that no state can outmatch Louisiana during the holidays. None. Zero. Nada. Our people are merrier, our meals are tastier, our music is more joyful, and no one knows—no one—how to have more fun with the ones they love than the good people of Louisiana. Even when times are tough—and I know they’re tough right now for many Louisiana families—Louisianians always find a way to pull together and give thanks for the blessings in their lives,” he continued.

“Our people make everything good about Louisiana better.”

“So, I, along with my wife, Becky, my son, Preston, and our two beloved dogs, Lily Grace and Charlie, want to wish you and your family peace and hope and joy during this Christmas season,” said Kennedy.

“God bless you all, and Merry Christmas—from both me and Alphonse!”
