By ADAM DAIGLE | Acadiana Business Editor

Good morning, Acadiana, and thank you for reading us today. We have the business news headlines for you this morning. The top news this morning was the late-breaking news from Monday that Vice President Kamala Harris' visit to Sunset has been rescheduled for Friday. She will promote the expansion of high-speed Internet by the Biden administration in rural areas, including many areas of St. Landry and Evangeline parishes, which have some of the slowest internet speeds in the region.

Have a good day and see you back here tomorrow morning.
