ACLU of Mississippi Is Proud to Present the 2015 Legislative Score Card
A Measurement of Progress on Issues of Equity and Inclusion in Mississippi. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 3 2015 Legislative Score Card 7 Commitment to Criminal Justice Reform 8 Extend Equality to All Mississippians 11 Guarantee Freedom of Speech, Expression, Protecting Privacy & Public Access 17 Other Legislative Actions 18 Other Resolutions 18 The Scorecard 19 House of Representatives 20 Senate 25 Notes 27 Introduction Mississippi’s statistics about disparities in education, employment, health, incarceration and other equitable opportunities are all too familiar. Familiarity with the dismal indicators, however, cannot breed acquiescence. This does not have to be the legacy of our state. We do not need governmental leadership nor Mississippi’s citizens to accept being last. Instead, we need courageous leadership with an intentional commitment to equity, a willingness to change the narrative and genuine community engagement. Mississippi is Failing to Thrive. It is time we stop being last. www.aclu-ms.org 3 Mississippi has some of the highest equity disparities in the country. Poverty Mississippi continues to be the poorest state in the nation. • “While working hard, many of Mississippi’s families fall short of economic security. According to an analysis of data from the U.S. Census, approximately 42% of Mississippi’s working families are low-income and 22% of residents live in poverty.” (http://mepconline.org/category/policy-areas/income-working-families) • Alongside poverty, disparity continues to loom. For children the poverty rate is 35%, for senior citizens the poverty rate is 18% and for women the poverty rate is 25.9%. There are 253,000 Black children below 200% poverty.

Mississippi 2014 Legislative Roster
MISSISSIPPI 2014 LEGISLATIVE ROSTER The mighty Mississippi River, as it flows down our western border, is but one of many majestic sights in our great state. For 48 years, the covers of our annual legislative rosters have displayed the beauty Mississippians hold dear and tourists come to see. We take pride in the rich traditions and resources our state oﬀers. Our greatest resource, however, is our people. This roster includes hundreds of dedicated servants who have chosen to represent us in state govern - ment. They spend untold hours using their skills and talents to move Mississippi forward. We convey our thanks to each of them for their valuable contributions in serving our people. We are the Electric Power Associations of Mississippi, a statewide association committed to common goals to ensure all Mississippians enjoy the benefits oﬀered by another great resource, electricity. In a collective and cooperative manner, more than 2,850 dedicated employ - ees of 26 electric power associations use their unique skills daily to maintain a complex electrical system that serves more than 85 percent of the state’s land mass. We provide the outlet to power the homes, farms and businesses of more than 1.8 million people who call this state home. Because we are electric cooperatives, our consumers are our members. They attend annual membership meetings to elect local people to represent their interests on their cooperative’s board of directors. We encourage our members to stay in touch with us; listening and respond - ing to those we serve are among the most vital of our traditions.
