State Rep. Trey Lamar: The Build Up Mississippi Act  

This week, host Grant Callen went to the Mississippi State Capitol to sit down with Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, State Representative Trey Lamar. Chairman Lamar is the lead author of newly introduced House Bill 1, the “Build Up Mississippi Act”, which would eliminate the state’s income tax over ten years, reduce the sales tax on groceries, increase the general sales tax and fuel tax, and make other substantive changes to Mississippi’s tax code. With a goal of making Mississippi’s tax code the most economically competitive in the nation, Chairman Lamar shared why he wrote this bill and why he believes it’s such a transformational piece of legislation.
