  • 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.

Through it all, Anthem remained focused on its core business issues. We were able to do so because of our associates, who made the pivot to working under pandemic conditions, while continuing to deliver on our promises to those we serve. Those promises are easier to manage because our associates also stepped up in 2020 to ensure that Anthem PAC was able to leverage our collective voices to help shape and inform the legislative landscape around COVID-19 delivery of care and many other core business issues in support of our company, our industry, and our customers. The generous donations of our associates allowed Anthem PAC to help elect federal and state lawmakers across the political spectrum who believe in the value of a competitive marketplace that allows us to offer consumers innovative, affordable healthcare choices.
