“The Mississippi House of Representatives has passed legislation multiple times to address this and regulate it while keeping that revenue here, but it has yet to be taken up in the Mississippi Senate by Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann,” State Rep. Casey Eure said.
Mississippi’s Attorney General, along with attorneys general in 40 other states, have formed a coalition to provide assurance that the regulation power of “event contracts” for online sports-related betting falls to states, and not the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.

In Flowood, Meagan Torrence has turned a parking space into her “Bless This Mess Garage Studio.”
Some of the best art in Mississippi right now isn’t happening in a studio with perfect lighting or white walls.
But it’s not where you might expect—rather, it’s happening in a garage.
In Flowood, Meagan Torrence has turned a parking space into her “Bless This Mess Garage Studio.” The name fits—canvases stacked, works in progress everywhere, and usually a five-year-old in the middle of it all.
