Speaker Jason White: 2025 Legislative Priorities + BONUS Clip
On Mississippi’s 207th birthday, Empower Mississippi hosted its 4th annual Solution Summit at the Sheraton Hotel in Flowood. At the Summit, host Grant Callen sat down with Mississippi’s 62nd Speaker of the House, Jason White, to discuss his vision for policy change and his 2025 legislative priorities. They talked about the new education funding formula, school choice, tax reform, healthcare, and criminal justice reforms that will make the state safer and help more people leaving prison find meaningful work. Speaker White discussed how he serves the two constituencies that elected him: his local house district and the other 121 members of the house who elected him Speaker.
After the Speaker interview, stay tuned for a 10-min bonus clip of Grant Callen’s opening remarks at the Solutions Summit. He shared some thoughts on what makes Mississippi so special, the progress that has been made, and a few indicators that more work must be done to make Mississippi the most free, prosperous, and opportunity-rich state in that nation. We hope you enjoy this special episode of The Empower Podcast.
