While I was out pumping gas I had the opportunity to speak about the values of wearing your seatbelt to @theSandyChilds and how important it is to drive slower than the posted Speed limit in the rain.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. inspired a nation and generations to truly live up to our nation's creed. The struggle for civil rights cost this nation and our state way too many good men and women like Dr. King, Medgar Evers, Vernon Dahmer and many more. #MLKDay2022

There is misinformation circulating about plans to cancel extracurricular activities. @MissDeptEd does not have authority over extracurricular activities. School districts and MHSAA make those decisions. @MissDeptEd info about school reopening plans: https://t.co/4XyWsyK8kx.
It is now time, and I am convicted that changing the flag makes Alcorn County and Mississippi better.
Whenever my time in public service is complete, I want my children to look back and be proud of what I’ve done. A vote to keep the flag does not accomplish this goal.
