Miller also points out that, unfortunately, MS's economy moved from rapid, robust growth from 2023 and 2024 into much weaker, more stagnant growth in 2025 and 2026.
BYRON BROWN: What is the state of the economy here in Mississippi?
COREY MILLER: We were doing fantastic in 2023 and 2024. We did the best we've done since the '90s back then! We slowed down in 2025, but the years before 2025 were phenomenal years for Mississippi's economy.
