<h2>Wednesday, January 7th, 2026</h2>As your State Senator, I was proud to vote YES on SB 2001 and SB 2003 - two bills that take meaningful steps toward supporting our educators and strengthening our classrooms. SB 2001: Teacher Pay Raise This bill provides a $2,000 across the board raise for K-12 teachers and assistant teachers, with legislative intent to also raise pay for community college and IHL faculty. I support this because it’s a strong starting point. Our goal is to push this closer to a $5,000 raise for K–12 certified teachers by the end of the session. Just as importantly, this bill protects assistant teachers by prohibiting districts from cutting local supplements due to the raise. Investing $132 million in our educators is an investment in Mississippi’s future. SB 2003: Retired Educator Law Updates This bill helps get experienced retired educators back into the classroom full-time. It expands eligibility to any PERS retiree who earns a standard teaching license, increases allowable pay, shortens the required break in service for retirees who are 59.5 years of age or older, and removes restrictive “critical shortage” limits. I voted YES on both bills because our educators deserve respect, fair pay, and practical solutions to staffing shortages. Today was a productive first day, and I look forward to the work ahead.

Women For Progress at the Capitol

<h2>Monday, January 12th, 2026</h2>Yesterday, the Senate voted to advance HB 2018. HB 2018 establishes the Mississippi National Guard TRICARE Premium Reimbursement Program, ensuring eligible Guard members are reimbursed for the cost of their TRICARE Reserve Select health insurance premiums. This bill Reimburses eligible members at the current TRICARE Reserve Select premium rate. Sets clear eligibility standards to ensure accountability. Directs the Adjutant General to oversee implementation through rules and regulations. Requires annual reporting to the Legislature for transparency. Provides funding through legislative appropriation HB 2018 is about fairness and respect for service. It recognizes that taking care of our Guard members is not optional. It’s an obligation. I am proud to support legislation that backs up our words with action.

Municipal Day at the Capitol is a powerful reminder of what local leadership looks like in action.Today, I had the opportunity to meet with Councilman Jeffrey George of Hattiesburg and Kristal Jones, Sharon King, and Angie Scruggs from Laurel, to discuss how municipalities and state legislature can work together to better our communities.&nbsp;From infrastructure and economic development to public safety and quality of life, these conversations help ensure that local voices are heard in our State Capitol.This is truly a great moment for the Pine Belt! Strong representation, meaningful dialogue, and a shared commitment to building thriving communities across South Mississippi!

On this Martin Luther King Jr. Day, remembrance is not enough, we must recommit to action.Dr. King reminded us that “the vote is the foundation stone for political action.” In Mississippi, we know voting rights were never freely given, they were fought for through faith, courage, and sacrifice. And this administration has made it abundantly clear: our vote must be protected and defended in every generation.That is why I’m proud to co-sponsor the Robert G. Clark, Jr. Voting Rights Act for Mississippi, legislation that protects and strengthens our voting rights in the state of Mississippi.This bill will: Prevent voter suppression and vote dilution. Protect voters from intimidation and deception. Create safeguards before harm occurs.Please understand: this is about equal treatment, not special treatment. Our democracy is a living promise that must be nurtured with intention, protected with courage, and defended in every generation. I remain committed to that responsibility for our community and for the entire state.

“People First. Progress Always!”

<h2>Friday, January 9th, 2026</h2>I’ve spoken about the Senate bills I voted YES on. Now let me tell you what I emphatically voted NO on.SB 2002 is simply another version of School Choice, and Mississippi has seen where that road leads.By removing the requirement that both school districts agree to a transfer, this bill sidelines local voices and weakens community oversight. Allowing districts to charge tuition in place of local tax support creates a two-tiered system - one where access and opportunity can depend more on a family’s ability to pay than on a child’s need to learn.Let’s be clear: policies branded as school choice too often result in resource drain, increased inequity, and destabilized home districts, especially in rural and underserved communities.Our focus should be on strengthening and fully funding every public school, not repackaging school choice in a way that leaves some communities behind. I will always stand for fairness, transparency, and public schools that serve all Mississippi children.

Celebrating 48 Years!For nearly five decades, Women for Progress of MS has been a force for change. Through leadership development, advocacy, and a steadfast commitment to equity and justice, Women for Progress continues to empower women to claim their voice, step into leadership, and shape a more inclusive and prosperous future for generations to come.Today, that legacy, and the visionary leadership of founder Dorothy Stewart Samuel,&nbsp; was honored on the Senate floor.&nbsp;Here’s to the women who lead and the work that continues. May their mission and service to the community continue for generations to come.

Last week, our Capitol was made brighter by the incredible young pages who served with focus and a real passion for learning.Watching them observe Senate proceedings and sit in committee meetings was a powerful reminder of why civic education matters. These students didn’t just learn how governments work, they experienced it. They asked thoughtful questions, listened intently, and showed a keen interest in public service and the future of Mississippi.I’m especially grateful for the opportunity to spend time with them and hear their perspectives. Their enthusiasm, commitment to learning and respect for the democratic process were inspiring. Experiences like the Senate Page Program don’t just shape students for a week, they plant seeds that grow into a lifetime of political engagement and leadership.I thank the Pages for their service and I’m confident that Mississippi’s future is in good hands.

<h2>Thursday, January 8th, 2026</h2>Yesterday we took an important step toward keeping our promises to the people who kept our state running.With the passage of SB 2004, we committed $500 million to PERS this fiscal year and pledged an additional $50 million every year for the next 10 years - a nearly $1 billion investment to help shore up the system and responsibly address its $26 billion unfunded liability.This vote is about more than numbers on a balance sheet. It’s about teachers, first responders, public servants, and retirees who dedicated their careers to Mississippi with the understanding that the state would honor its commitments to them.This is a meaningful step forward, one that shows fiscal responsibility alongside respect for the people who have served our communities every single day.I will continue to support efforts that strengthen PERS, protect retirees, and ensure the long-term stability of the system for current and future public servants.

<h2>Wednesday, January 14th, 2026</h2>Big news for Mississippi tourism!The Senate has advanced the Mississippi Tourism Reorganization Act, a bold step that modernizes how our state promotes one of its most powerful economic engines - tourism.This legislation creates a standalone Mississippi Department of Tourism, allowing tourism promotion to have a focused mission, dedicated leadership, and the tools needed to compete on a national stage. An Executive Director, appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Senate, will lead a coordinated, statewide effort to grow visitation and investment.What this means for Mississippi:<ul><li>A dedicated agency focused solely on tourism development and marketing</li><li>New grant programs that partner with local tourism entities through matching fund</li><li>Expanded marketing and promotional opportunities, including advertising sales</li><li>A new Tourism Advertising Fund to reinvest tourism dollars back into tourism</li><li>Smarter use of existing sales tax revenue from restaurants and hotels to support growth</li></ul>Tourism isn’t just about visitors, it’s about jobs, small businesses, and local communities across our state. This reorganization ensures Mississippi is better positioned to tell its story, attract travelers, and strengthen our economy.

Every child in Mississippi deserves a high-quality education, no matter their zip code. Johnny believes we must invest in our teachers, fix crumbling school buildings, and ensure every student has access to technology and after-school support. He will work to protect and expand funding for public education—not cut it under the guise of tax breaks for the wealthy.

He will fight for fully funded public schools, better teacher pay, and investments in technology and learning tools.

Fully Funded Public Education

Rural communities often get left behind when it comes to road repairs and public transportation. As fuel taxes rise, Johnny believes we must demand real return on investment—by fixing our roads, ensuring public safety, and improving broadband and transit options. No community should be unsafe or disconnected due to political neglect.

As fuel taxes rise, Johnny will push to ensure those funds go toward safer roads, rural infrastructure, and public transit improvements.
