Tonight’s State of the State Address

Were you able to catch Governor Reeves’ State of the State address this evening?

He did a great job, focusing on fixes to the prison system, workforce development, and teacher pay. All in all, I thought he laid out an aggressive and substantive plan for the future of Mississippi.

At Treasury, we are excited to support his workforce development agenda by helping more Mississippians save for their college degree and facilitating the community investments required to bring in new job creators.

Now is the time to invest in a strong foundation on which tomorrow’s workforce can stand.

If you would like to learn more about a Mississippi College Savings plan, please visit treasury.ms.gov. I also included a little information below on the two college savings plans, in case that’s helpful.

Hope to catch up again soon!

Mississippi Prepaid Affordable College Tuition Plan (MPACT). MPACT prepays the cost of tuition and mandatory fees, while protecting against future college tuition increases. MPACT is the only 529 prepaid tuition plan available that is guaranteed by the State of Mississippi.
