Under the leadership of Gov. @tatereeves, the Magnolia State has blazed a trail toward expanding opportunities for all Mississippians.
Reforming food stamps to encourage healthier options—prohibiting soda and other junk food—is a win for families, children, and taxpayers!
Governor Tate Reeves@tatereeves
Welfare benefits are a hand-up for those in desperate, temporary need. And when taxpayers fund these things, they do so strategically. They're trying to help their neighbors into a better life – a more fulfilling one. That means a job you can be proud of, and a lifestyle that is healthy: on a physical and spiritual level. In a nation that is printing money daily just to make our debt payments, it doesn't make sense to throw your tax money at anything other than the true necessities. So it makes no sense at all to fund sugar instead of hearty nutritious meals. I love a soda or candy bar – who doesn't? But it's a treat on a hard day. And it's best enjoyed with money earned from work, not your neighbor's taxes. That's why we're amending our food stamp rules to allow good sustaining food like rotisserie chickens and disallow sugary candy and drinks. If the first ingredient is sugar or corn syrup, it won't be available with taxpayer money any more. This has been approved by the Trump Administration in 12 states, and I expect Mississippi to be the next. It's just common sense.

It's disgusting to see the hate spewing out across universities in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination. A father was killed. Two kids are waking up without their dad, and a wife without her husband. They deserve our prayers. To say otherwise is shameful. Period.

President Reagan’s “Boys of Pointe du Hoc,” eloquently spoken in 1984 from the same cliffs where US Army Rangers achieved the impossible 40 years earlier. Their mission: silence the German guns aimed at the Allied landings below. Pointe du Hoc was a strategic stronghold, perched between Utah and Omaha Beach, fortified with artillery and machine guns that could’ve shredded the invasion before it even started. So before the main force hit the beach, 225 Army Rangers set out. They were led by a Texan and Aggie—Lieutenant Colonel James Earl Rudder. Under heavy fire, they fired rocket-propelled grappling hooks and scaled the 100-foot cliff. When they reached the top, they found the guns had been moved. But the mission didn’t stop there. The Rangers searched, found the artillery, destroyed it, and held the line against fierce German counterattacks. For two straight days, they fought outnumbered and isolated. When the battle was over, only 90 Rangers remained. Rudder had been wounded twice and refused to leave. For his actions, he received the Distinguished Service Cross—the second-highest award for combat valor. In 2022, the surviving Rangers were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal. They didn’t climb that cliff for medals. They did it because it had to be done. They showed what courage, sacrifice, and American grit look like. -- Courtesy @Reagan_Library @RonaldReagan

We've turned this country into a sick-care system, rather than a healthcare system. This administration is going to change that.
