The bills featured in CPAC’s 2022 Ratings of Mississippi address tax reductions, election integrity, special interest tax incentives, and Second Amendment rights. These issues, coupled with our mission to protect life, liberty, property and uphold the American family, created the basis by which the CPAC Foundation rated the Mississippi legislature.

The Center for Legislative Accountability (CLA), an initiative of the CPAC Foundation, is the premier organization for holding lawmakers accountable.
