John,

For too long, our legislative leaders have run our state like a casino for special interests -- collecting chips, handing out favors -- and Mississippians deserve better. Jim has spent his entire career as district attorney and attorney general going after illegal corruption. As governor, Jim will clean up our state government by going after legal corruption and ensuring our state government is putting the interests of hardworking Mississippians first. Will you sign our petition to show your support for Jim’s lobbying reforms?

Jim Hood’s lobbying reforms will go after every instance of taxpayers getting ripped off, every special insider deal, and every wasteful giveaway. That means:

• Subjecting our legislature to the Public Records Act, which would require the disclosure of any and all communication between lobbyists and legislators
• Banning campaign contributions while the legislature is in session
• Banning gifts of any kind from lobbyists, like:
  - Fancy drinks and meals
  - Tickets to concerts
  - Tickets to sports games

Jim is running for governor to put a stop to shady, backroom deals. These reforms are the change we need to ensure that our government is working for us, not special interest groups.

Sign our petition to support Jim’s proposals to make Mississippi’s state government open and honest.

Thank you,
Jim Hood HQ
