Though I had grandfathers that honorably served our country, I was never called to serve, Nevertheless, my reverence and respect for those me has never wavered.
Honored to celebrate them in a Veterans Day ceremony at the Armed Forces Retirement Home in Gulfport this morning.
Today at the Mississippi Literacy Summit, my daughter and I reflected on MSโs climb from 49th to top 10 in reading. She was in 1st grade when I voted for the Literacy-Based Promotion Act, and a big reason why. Proud of her, our teachers & Mississippi. ๐ #MississippiMiracle
Huge thanks to everyone who made it happen: local officials, law enforcement, first responders, volunteers, and every business that pitched in. You showed the whole country what Corinth is made of.
No matter where life takes me, this place will always be home.
What a night for Corinth, Mississippi! ๐บ๐ธ
Tonight our little corner of the world welcomed the President of the United States, and I couldn't be prouder. Seeing the town I grew up in filled with neighbors, flags, and so much energy was something I'll never forget.
Spent today at the Mississippi StateโOklahoma game, walking from tent to tent and box to box. Thanks to everyone who welcomed me in, shared a plate, and told me what matters most to you. Nothing beats game day and the people who make our state what it is. ๐

Mornin' from Tupelo!" I had some famous relatives who used to say that, and it still makes me smile every time I get to say it myself. Thank you for having me today.
Great to be home in Northeast Mississippi!
One of the best things about traveling the state is experiencing local traditions. Last night I so greatly enjoyed the The Philips Stew Cooking in Lowndes County.
