FOR ALL MISSISSIPPI

It was my greatest honor to be sworn in as Mississippi’s 65th Governor on
January 14, 2020.

Standing before all of Mississippi, I promised that this administration would be
an administration for all Mississippi. That I would defend the loving culture
that underpins our quality of life and work to grow an economy that lifts all of
our families. I am determined to honor that promise.

I am asking today for you to join me in that mission. We must care about each
other enough to overcome our differences. We must be faithful to each other
enough to outlast our shortcomings. And we must be committed to each other
enough to raise our expectations.

When I took that first oath of office as State Treasurer in 2003, I did not know
how long my service would last. All I knew is that you, the people of
Mississippi, had demonstrated a faith in me that I might never be able to meet.

I have never underestimated your trust. I have never forgotten the oath to
pursue service with the help of our God. And I will wake up every day working to
bring us together to make our state be all it can be. Work that will be done by
all of Mississippi.

Chase DearDid you make sure to tell the doctors in Meridian how much of each
medication they were allowed to prescribe to their patients? I'm sure they'd
appreciate your medical expertise.

AC SippiCongrats Meridian! Govenor Reeves, how about start looking for an
Industrial Hemp Processor to drop up in the Delta somewhere? Have your guys look
into it. Sounds like hemp is making a comeback after the Feds made it legal. Its
only the beginning! It's a gamble but a worthy one!

Randall HayesMake sure you stop by the gas stations they’re only allowed to buy
two alcohol beverages a day now that’s it just. Wine if they bought more than
two bottles of whiskey there will be 400,000 drunk drivers out there. Also don’t
forget to tell them only buy one pack of cigarettes now make sure you tell them
Lord forbid you find yourself in a situation to where u or one of your family
members needs cannabis however if so I bet you’d sign that paper so fast it’d
make your pen spin.

Bbing KaPlease help in spreading this abuse. On August 18, 2021 at my hearing at
Biloxi Court MS I caught Judge Steele, Prosecutors Eckert and Herenski boasting,
bragging how they set me up. They were also mocking the 1st amendment like they
were above the law. I've been sending this to WLOX and The Sun Herald for a
while and it is being.

Reese OdioYou’re calling him out for imposing mandates to help curve and get
this this pandemic under control. However you’re still faulting him for not
having access to regular, reliable, and free testing? Please Make it make sense
to Tate. I don’t understand how you don’t want to help fight the pandemic but
you still want enough test for people. When they test positive then it’s over
bearing health care workers and putting stress o. Them. How about you start
enforcing some mandates and help get it under control then there will be no need
to argue over free testing. You are a joke! so called governor!

Jacob NiblettOn December 22nd a lawyer was allowed to make 4 false statements
about me in closing arguments and when I tried to point them out I was told to
shush. Then after the bench ruling in my favor was made 40 minutes later I'm
told there was a post trial conference and a delay was issued. You'd think after
3 and a half years the delays would have been played out. My estimate at the
amount of delays we've had I over 20.
