SUNHERALD says grandstanding politicians (Bryant, Reeves, Gunn) hurting state

SUN HERALD | Editorial: Grandstanding politicians are hurting Mississippians

Even as Gov. Phil Bryant implores the state’s business community to accentuate the positive, the governor’s own policies are hampering much of what’s wrong with Mississippi from being made right.

Bryant’s misguided approach to governing would be detrimental enough without a chorus of consent from fellow Republicans in the Legislature. But in combination with Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, who presides over the state Senate, and Speaker of the House Philip Gunn, Bryant is riding high on a wave of support that may yet swamp the state.

Take just two of the state’s top priorities: education and health care.
