Citizen initiatives are not the topic that will get the most attention among those who watch what the Mississippi Legislature does. Still, the persistent unwillingness to replace the initiative process ruled illegal by the state Supreme Court five years ago makes it clear lawmakers aren’t interested in this issue.
On Feb. 11, the full Senate in a voice vote tabled a concurrent resolution that would have allowed citizens to propose new state laws, or amend or repeal existing ones. The tabled bill missed a deadline for action and died the next day.

According to Chief Johnson this grant will assist in purchasing a skid unit for a city brush truck. He explained that skid units are equipment that allow for offroad firefighting, such as in heavily wooded or muddy areas where regular firetrucks cannot reach.

As of 2023, a woman’s life expectancy was 81.1 years (U.S.). The challenge is to maintain the extra years in good health and productivity. In the past, medical research has ignored many health issues important to women. Recently, new research related to women’s health problems has yielded insights into preventive and complementary healthcare for women.
