Haley Barbour praised by NAACP for sisters’ release

NAACP President Benjamin Jealous called Barbour a “shining example” at a news conference just a few minutes ago in Mississippi. He urged governors to use their powers to commute prison sentences or grant pardons to correct what he considers to be social injustices.

“We need more days like this in Mississippi. We need more days like this in this country,” Jealous said, adding a special thanks to Barbour.
