My 5 year old just told me to show the news that I have a picture with the new president! I dont really have a way to put it on the news, but Twitter seemed like the next best thing. =�=�=�@JoeBiden @KamalaHarris https://t.co/cWHAdgpGR5
If our tax code allows a billionaire to pay less in taxes than a school teacher, we need a new tax code. https://t.co/2P1zC52BDq
Mississippi is often confused with being very far-left and in need of spending millions to teach more patriotism....said no one ever. Well, until our Governor. >&<� @ https://t.co/gBwvFpdD1R

The MS House of Representatives passed a resolution to suspend the rules and to allow the current flag to be removed and to commission a new flag. Your turn, Senate. #itstime #forwardprogress https://t.co/LWyje7gceZ
Close to this time last year, I was campaigning for change and forward progress. Today, those campaign messages resonate truer than ever. One of the many things we need to change is our state flag. Its time. #stennisflag #forwardprogress https://t.co/lbUVrs9Bdo
I am honored to have been elected Deputy Minority Leader of the House Democratic Caucus. As a freshman legislator this is especially humbling. I will work hard to ensure a productive and meaningful legislative session for the benefit of all Mississippians.
The #msleg 2021 legislative session started on a high note today! The House just formally adopted the new state flag which was overwhelmingly approved by the voters of MS last November. #forwardprogress https://t.co/SamXSFo8z8
Just so everyone knows, @RobertFoster4MS finally learned how to spell RINO. Yall all say a prayer for him. He couldnt handle a woman in his truck, so we damn sure know he cant handle one in the White House. https://t.co/1HQm8FWapO
