Dolly Parton represented all that is kind, caring, loving and talented about the South. Her impact as a good human being is just as impressive as her professional career.
So good to run into my old friend and former Chief Justice of the Mississippi Supreme Court, Bill Waller, Jr., today at the The B.T.C. Old-Fashioned Grocery!
Congrats to my dear friend, @NARUC President Ann Rendahl on a successful Summer Policy Summit in Minneapolis. Ann served as Chair of Electricity during my tenure as @NARUC President and is doing a great job as head of the trade group representing utility regulators across America!
Honored to announce that I’m rejoining the Advisory Council of the @nmsu Center for Public Utilities. The CPU is one of the crown jewels of utility regulation in all of America and one of only four university centers in the country endorsed by @NARUC!
Front porches are made for friends and fellowship. Thanks to all who stopped by today for a casual Memorial Day lunch catered by the excellent folks at The Oaks at Sherin Farms!
It is a sincere honor today to be named as a Mississippi Trustee on the newly-created Southern Deltas Board of Trustees of @nature_org alongside others from our state, Alabama and Louisiana.
Protecting the natural resources of the Gulf South and promoting conservation is important work and I’m honored to volunteer in that effort.
Blue Mountain tore it up on their song “Jimmy Carter” today at the Casey Jones Music Festival here in wonderful Water Valley, MS. I just want to have the fun the gentleman down front in the black hat had! @SenatorCarter, we will get you on stage next time!
Happy Heavenly Birthday to Governor William Winter who would have turned 103 today. Governor Winter’s legacy is unparalleled in Mississippi history. From education reform to racial reconciliation, he spent every moment trying to make Mississippi a better place.
Since I’ll be getting a full day head start on 2026 by ringing it in with the Kiwis here in New Zealand, let me go ahead and wish you all a Happy New Year from “Down Under.”
The goodness, charity and love of the American people can be found in these small, quiet acts that make a real difference in the lives of one another. I couldn’t be prouder of my hometown.
It’s an honor to serve as Chairman of the Water Valley Electric Commission, our publicly-owned electric utility that dates back to 1894. Tonight was extra special as I introduced our customers to Jim McClure, our new General Manager.
