Crawford – Let facts speak for state of Miss.
Did you know… For 2009, the year after the Great Recession hit, per capita income fell in all 50 states. Only nine states got back to 2008 levels, or higher, for 2010. Did you know Mississippi was one of those nine?
Turns out per capita income increases, along with job creation, were a hallmark of Gov. Haley Barbour’s term. Mississippi per capita income increased 34 percent during his eight years.
