The fleur-de-lis is the official state symbol of Louisiana. It is a stylized iris that has appeared on many European coats of arms and flags in history, particularly in the French royal families. Scalise represents Louisiana's 1^st congressional district.

The latest update from Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, R-Wisc., is that Scalise is "doing a lot better" but will require more surgeries to make a recovery.
