Today, our nation celebrates 250 years of freedom! This Independence Day is a historic milestone and an opportunity to pause and reflect on our nation’s past, honor the contributions of all Americans, and look ahead toward the future we want to create for the next generation.

I appreciate the opportunity to join Bruce Bartley’s crowd at Grip N Grin yesterday. Great food and fellowship in Madison County where so many good things are happening. The House will continue to engage in tough conversations. We do our best work when we are a little uncomfortable!

Great day in Kosciusko as we cut the ribbon on Rocky’s House, a traveling exhibit of the @MSChildsMuseum. The early literacy initiative focuses on building foundational language skills through interactive play and will be in Kosciusko for the month of July.

Enjoyed being in my hometown of Kosciusko for our America 250 celebration. Fantastic day of activities and an evening honoring our veterans. The Kosciusko Attala Partnership-Chamber of Commerce and many volunteers did an outstanding job celebrating our nation’s 250th birthday.

Pine Grove Church once again knocks it out of the park with their production of For God & Country. The stories of ordinary people who witnessed extraordinary events in American history.

It’s great to be back at the Neshoba County Fair today, where politics are discussed, friendships are renewed, babies are introduced, and occasionally minds are changed. Mississippi’s Giant House Party is a reminder that despite our differences, we are all Mississippians first!

Across the country, and certainly in Mississippi, hospitals are facing significant challenges. I’ve been proud of the House’s work with @MHA to seek solutions to protect access to care in our state. I enjoyed joining them at their Leadership Conference to continue the conversations aimed at improving Mississippi’s healthcare outcomes.

United in Song, America250 Mississippi’s cornerstone event is a great opportunity for us to come together on June 20th to celebrate the country we love. It will be a powerful showcase of patriotism and unity as we celebrate America’s 250th birthday. All of Mississippi is invited.

I enjoyed John Perry’s new book “Never Stop Getting Better” so much, I ordered several for my crew. We are so proud of Coach Perry, our homegrown Mississippi guy and all he’s accomplished. Highly recommend his book!! @jperry_nixa #NSGB #letthem

We are saddened to share yet another loss in the Mississippi House of Representatives with the passing of State Representative Bo Brown. Bo served in the House for seven years and represented his constituents of Hinds County well. A valuable member on House Corrections, Judiciary B, Medicaid, Tourism, and Transportation Committees, Bo conducted himself with professionalism, respect, and kindness. Please keep his wife, Imelda, and children, Michelle, Kidada, and Dawn, in your prayers. We will miss another friend in the House. May he rest in peace.

You are correct, except it was solely the Lt. Governor and the Mississippi State Senate that chose to stay out of online sports betting. They did so by killing well put together bills that passed the House. It passed multiple times in the Mississippi House over the last few years with safeguards as well as protections for our “ brick and mortar” gaming establishments, only to find a quiet death in the Senate.

It is with heavy hearts that we pause to reflect on the passing of our friend and colleague in the Mississippi House of Representatives, State Representative Price Wallace. Price served in the House for nine years and cared deeply about his constituents in Rankin and Simpson County. As Chairman of the House Constitution Committee, he led on landmark legislation such as restoring the Ballot Initiative that the House passed numerous times. He believed in restoring the constitutional right for Mississippians to have a fair and accessible means of influencing state policy. A poultry farmer and constant advocate for Mississippi agriculture – Price was a proud Republican and an asset to our state. He was always so proud of his kids and certainly enjoyed the title of granddaddy. We will miss our friend in the House. Please join me in keeping his wife, Cindy, and his family in your prayers. A good man, may he rest in peace.

Thank you to the Greenville Rotary Club for the invitation and hospitality. The Mississippi Delta is a special place.

@XVMP_KELL @tatereeves It will now be required in MS. See the Conference Report for SB 2292 from this year’s 2026 Session. The Financial Literacy Act was included and signed into law as part of SB 2292.

Financial literacy shouldn’t be optional in high school. Kids need to learn budgeting, taxes, credit, and investing before they graduate — not after they’re already in debt. This is basic preparation for life. Should financial literacy be a graduation requirement?@tatereeves @DelbertHosemann @JasonWhiteMS

Enjoyed getting to visit with Attorney General Lynn Fitch’s Summer Interns. We discussed leadership, public service and the impact of the legal profession in Mississippi.

This Memorial Day, we pay tribute to those courageous individuals who gave their lives for our freedom. Their bravery and dedication will never be forgotten.

This week, the House Select Committee on Property Tax convened to hear from the Department of Revenue and receive an overview of Mississippi's Property Tax system. This Select committee, Co-Chaired by Representative @tlamar44 and Representative @RepShaneBarnett, will examine all aspects of the Mississippi Property Tax system and work to find ways to reduce the tax burden on Mississippians. The Mississippi House of Representatives led the charge to eliminate the personal income tax in Mississippi, and we will lead the charge to reduce real property taxes and reduce car tag fees.

Thank you to the Madison County Republican Executive Committee, @ms_mcrw, and the Madison County Republican Club for hosting me for the America 250 Celebration. We have real momentum going in Mississippi and in America and I was pleased to be able to share some of the Legislative successes we have experienced over the last several sessions. From establishing a pathway to eliminate the personal income tax in Mississippi, removing burdensome regulations in our healthcare system with antiquated CON laws, to building on the "Mississippi Miracle" with transformational policies in education, Mississippi's future is bright! The record is clear: Conservative polices work. The best way to enact conservative policies is to elect Republicans to local, state, and federal office. And these Madison County Republicans get it.

From our country’s beginning, for as long as America has embodied freedom and exceptionalism, the soul of our nation has been rooted in the Christian faith. Today we gather, as our forefathers did on this day centuries ago, to rededicate our nation to God.
