Today, we remember September 11, 2001, and the nearly 3,000 innocent Americans who lost their lives.

We honor the firefighters, law enforcement officers, first responders, and ordinary Americans who showed extraordinary courage in the face of unimaginable tragedy.

Twenty-five years later, we will never forget the lives lost, the heroes who answered the call, and the unity that brought our nation together.

May we always remember. 🇺🇸

As a proud supporter of the Second Amendment, I encourage everyone to take advantage of the sales tax weekend starting today and running through August 30th. During this weekend, sales tax is waived on fi****ms, am******on, and hunting and archery gear.

Since being elected as your State Representative for District 95, I have always stood with Mississippi’s law-abiding gun owners, and I always will. I’ll continue to stand up for your Second Amendment rights, your right to protect your family, and our hunting traditions passed down from generation to generation.

Saturday evening, I had the honor of attending the Annual Armand Cantrelle Memorial Charity Gala, an event I have proudly supported since its inception.

It was a great turnout celebrating the life and legacy of a great man. I always enjoy the opportunity to visit with the Cantrelle family, friends, and constituents.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this year’s event such a success. I look forward to joining you again next year!
