Mississippi legislative leaders advocate Medicaid expansion, heading to conflict with the governor
SUMMARY: Mississippi’s Republican legislative leaders, including House Speaker Jason White and Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann, are advocating for Medicaid expansion to support low-income workers despite opposition from Governor Tate Reeves, who views Medicaid as “welfare.” Business groups endorse this initiative, arguing it would improve public health and strengthen communities. Medicaid expansion could benefit approximately 75,000 working individuals. Additionally, the leaders plan to focus on tax reduction measures in the upcoming legislative session, such as phasing out the state income tax and lowering the grocery tax, as they pursue various reform priorities for 2025.

SUMMARY: Pearl Public School District and local law enforcement addressed rumors of an active shooter at Pearl High School on Thursday, clarifying there was no immediate threat but confirming a “soft” lockdown in response to a potential danger. Parents expressed concern via social media and church networks after the rumor spread. The FBI is currently investigating a nationwide threat of violence, which may have contributed to the school’s lockdown. Additional misinformation about an escaped inmate also circulated, which was unfounded. Authorities emphasized their commitment to safety and preparedness in handling such incidents.

‘Please be patient’: MHSAA director warns coaches to avoid rumors in reclassification process
SUMMARY: The Mississippi High School Activities Association (MHSAA) is delaying its reclassification and redistricting process for the 2025-2027 school years due to difficulties in obtaining accurate enrollment data. MHSAA Executive Director Rickey Neaves announced that the state department of education has not yet provided necessary numbers, urging patience among school officials and coaches. Neaves advised against making advanced schedules based on rumors about new classifications and regions, as no decisions have been finalized. The updated classification model will be implemented for the 2025-26 school year, while coaches are encouraged to focus on current playoff events.
