Christian. Father. Husband. 7th Gen Mississippian. District Attorney. Running for US Senate because Mississippi Matters. Text SCOTT to 54937.
Tomorrow, for the Good Trouble Lives On Weekend of Action, I'll be with the legendary Carroll Rhodes talking about what's at stake if we don't protect our voting rights. Fair maps. Fair representation. A restored Voting Rights Act. Let's do this together because Mississippi Matters.
Whether it's siding with companies that take advantage of workers or keeping the Epstein files under wraps, we've had enough of the politicians protecting the powerful. It's time for someone to protect Mississippi.
Too many politicians think the rules don't apply to them. My new anti-corruption plan will hold the powerful accountable, and ensure no one is above the law or beneath its protection. Learn more: bit.ly/4eYd45O
Grateful for the opportunity to join the Mississippi South Annual Conference of the C.M.E. Church in Columbus. Thank you for the warm welcome, the fellowship and the chance to talk about how we can build a brighter future together. #MississippiMatters
You might think all politicians are crooked. You might also be asking what makes me different. Fair question. My answer: I don't just talk about corruption, I prosecute it. As a District Attorney, I followed the facts and held people accountable.
We owe Nolan Wells' family our prayers, support and a commitment to the truth.
One day, my own little girls are going to ask me what I did in this moment. I want to tell them I did everything I could to help write a new chapter for our state and show the country that Mississippi matters. That's the future I'm fighting for.
A good prosecutor doesn't just make accusations. They lay out the facts. I'm entering the exhibits on Cindy Hyde-Smith's record into evidence, and what they show is a Washington insider looking out for herself while Mississippi families pay the price.

While Mississippians are already struggling to keep up with the bills, Cindy Hyde-Smith has no problem selling out hardworking families to help her billionaires donors get even bigger tax breaks. That’s not “America First," that’s Mississippi last.
I’ve spent my career as a prosecutor. I know how to separate the politics from the facts. So, I’m going to follow the evidence and lay out the case against Cindy Hyde-Smith’s corruption that’s making life harder for Mississippi families. My first witnesses? Fox News.
Waffling around the campaign trail? I’ll leave that to others. I prefer Waffle House.
You know who's also running for U.S. Senate? This happily married dad of two who was vetted by the FBI for a federal judgeship. 😎 Text SCOTT to 54937 and join our movement. #MississippiMatters
It was great to visit with folks up in Alcorn County this weekend. I heard a lot about high costs, food insecurity, insurance & how it’s all feeling tighter these days. I'm grateful for the chance to listen. We’ve got more work to do to make sure families can keep up & get ahead. #MississippiMatters
I want to hear from Mississippians. I'll never shy away from the tough questions, the real concerns and what you want to see change. If I’m elected, I’m committed to showing up, listening, and working every day to help write Mississippi’s next chapter for the better. #MississippiMatters
I met Ms. Nettie at a town hall in Rankin County the other week. She is passionate about getting young people out to the polls and having a say in our democracy. She’s a pretty inspiring woman.
There's nothing quite like the Fourth of July in Mississippi! What a great morning at the Jacinto Fourth of July Celebration honoring 250 years of our country.
I want to be clear: I don’t have any say in the nicknames my wife gives me.
Great crowd, good conversations and a whole lot of people who believe Mississippi's best days are still ahead! Thanks for having me, Jackson. It’s always great to see old friends and meet new ones as well. Every conversation I have on the trail reminds me why I'm running. #MississippiMatters
TOMORROW is the day! I'll be at the Jacinto 4th of July Celebration in Rienzi and I can't wait to see everyone. Stop by, say hello and let's celebrate Independence Day together. 🇺🇸 RSVP here: bit.ly/4vGOrk2
Cindy High Prices told Mississippians to pick other proteins because beef is so expensive. Well, I stopped by a grocery store in Brookhaven to see what the “other protein” prices look like… you won’t believe what I found. 😳
One year ago, Cindy Hyde-Smith voted for the largest SNAP cut in history. Nearly 400,000 Mississippians rely on it to help put food on the table and thousands could lose that help. 💸 That’s the Cindy Tax: making it harder to afford groceries when families are already stretched thin.

Neshoba, it was an honor to stand at Founder’s Square and share my vision for Mississippi. I am so grateful for all the support this campaign has received across our state. We’re showing the country that Mississippi Matters, one conversation and county at a time.
One year ago, Cindy Hyde-Smith voted to make college harder to afford. Today, parents can borrow less, Pell Grants are harder to qualify for and borrowers will pay more each month. 💸 That’s the Cindy Tax: skyrocketing college costs and fewer chances for Mississippi students.
When even Mississippi's Republican Insurance Commissioner is saying we should've expanded Medicaid, maybe it's time to listen. Instead, politicians like Cindy Hyde-Smith doubled down on cuts that will make healthcare even harder to access.
