This year, @TVAnews awarded $1M in grants to schools for STEM education. Nearly 50 schools received grants in the West Region. I had the pleasure of presenting a few checks, and the students I met were inspiring. Keep learning & dreaming big. Special thanks to all educators!

I love to get out & about in the community. My recent talks at @CorinthRotary & @RotaryTupelo were as warm & welcoming as a fireside chat. Thank you for the kind invitation to talk @TVAnews! A special thanks to our customers who attended @TombigbeeEPA @TWLDEPT We appreciate you!

Surging natural-gas prices are raising power costs for utilities and, in turn, customers: “My utility bill literally doubled overnight”

Interesting piece about inflation, natural-gas supply and production outlook https://t.co/HvgxNDY9GD

Good news: $8M from @USDOT @DOTMARAD will fund rail projects at two MS ports. The completion of Aberdeen & Port Bienville projects will expand their ability to handle more goods and services, lifting the regions economically, which is a more than worthwhile goal.

#Memphis takes home Silver with the 2nd lowest utility costs nationwide. @Doxo reports: The average monthly bill for Memphis customers is 60% less than the national average. Keeping rates low is one way #TVA serves the people! https://t.co/N855ZAkKaQ @TVAnews @MLGW @DailyMemphian
