LAFAYETTE, La (The Advertiser)UPDATE: Vice President Mike Pence will be in Acadiana Friday, where he will meet with faith leaders of the three predominately African-American churches that were destroyed by an arsonist last month.
Third District Congressman Clay Higgins, R-Port Barre’, confirmed a visit is in the works, but other events could cause it to be delayed or canceled.
USA Today Network is also seeking confirmation from the White House.
“The security nature of a visit from the vice president is quite extensive, but I can tell you there has been talk about such a visit and that my office has been involed from the beginning to help coordinate it,” Higgins said. “The White House asked us to help.”
