On Thursday August 23rd Governor Bryant called the Mississippi legislature into special session to address funding repairs of Mississippi's roads and bridges. This issue has been discussed and debated for three years without a solution to the problem. The first issue to be addressed is whether our state is truly suffering from an emergency of road disrepair. The facts do not actually support that we have an emergency situation. Mississippi's state highways are rank 11th in the nation for road quality, that is not an emergency. The fact is our Mississippi Department of Transportation is actually doing a good job with the money we provide.
