Great day in Lucedale with @US_EDA, @EnvivaBiomass, @smpdd. @CommerceGov's investment will further strengthen Mississippi's status as a leader in economic development. Grateful to @SecretaryRoss & Dr. John Fleming for their leadership. 90 jobs on way to 700 across Mississippi!

Mississippi has experienced 12 consecutive months with an unemployment rate equal to or below 4.8%. x.com/PhilBryantMS/status/10…

The record for the lowest unemployment rate in MS history was broken in May 2017 when it dipped below 5%. Many people for years thought this wasn't possible. We have now had a run of 12 consecutive months where the unemployment rate has been equal or below the 4.8% mark.
