Good morning Jack,


Momentum on education freedom is building in Mississippi — and this is the moment to be part of the conversation.

With HB2 having passed the Mississippi House and now moving to the Senate, school choice is no longer theoretical. Decisions being made right now will directly impact Mississippi families, students, and communities. That’s why we’re hosting Education Freedom on Tuesday, February 10 at 11:30 AM at River Hills Club.

We’re honored to welcome Corey DeAngelis, one of the nation’s leading school choice advocates and a key national voice in the education freedom movement. Corey’s work has helped shape school choice reforms across the country, and the momentum behind these policies continues to grow — including support from the Trump administration and the U.S. Department of Education, which has publicly highlighted Mississippi’s progress on education freedom.

This conversation will also feature Mississippi leaders who are driving education reform on the ground:
* Starla Brown, State Director of Americans for Prosperity Mississippi, whose grassroots efforts have been instrumental in advancing policies that expand opportunity and empower families across our state.
* Lindsey Beckham, State Chair, Mississippi Legislative Chair, and Madison County Chapter Chair for Moms for Liberty, a leading voice for parental involvement and accountability in education.
* Leah Ferretti, Director of Mississippi Ready, a statewide initiative focused on expanding education options and ensuring Mississippi families can access the learning environments that best meet their children’s needs.
