Session turns to state’s budget woes BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

With less than one month before the end of the current legislative session focus has turned to the state’s budget woes. So far the state has collected about $38 million less in revenue this year compared to the same period one year ago. General tax collections are down

as well by some $56 million. Corporate income tax collections, sales tax collections and personal income tax collections are also down. “Unfortunately, Mississippi has not seen a positive month since June 2015,” said Sen. Rita Potts Parks (RAlcorn, Tishomingo, Tippah). “This year is already oﬀ to a bad start. We saw double digit shortfalls in January

and February, and March collections are below normal.” Last year, legislators funded the Rainy Day Fund to take care of the shortfall. Gov. Phil Bryant has already made multiple cuts to state agencies and dipped into the Rainy Day Fund this year to oﬀset possible revenue Please see SESSION | 2

Fugitive caught; faces 6 charges

‘Last chance’

BY MARK BOEHLER editior@dailycorinthian.com

A fugitive wanted on six felony charges in Corinth has been apprehended in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Corinth Police Department Detective Dell Green told the Daily Corinthian that 30-yearold Jamar Allen was picked up Monday and was being held by the Milwaukee Police Department. He is awaiting extradition and Corinth police personnel will travel there to pick up the suspect. Green was told no details on how the suspect was apprehended. Allen faces two counts of aggravated assault, one count of shooting into a dwelling and another count of a firearm possession by a convicted felon. Those charges stem from a Feb. 13 shooting on Mitchell Street. Green said the suspect was originally from Wisconsin but has been in Corinth for about a year. A street address was still not available for Allen.

Snow hits, freeze next BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

A rare Spring Break snowfall caught locals oﬀ guard on Saturday, and a hard freeze is in the forecast for this week. The National Weather Service in Memphis issued a Freeze Watch for the Crossroads area late Monday with freezing temperatures excepted to arrive midweek. A Freeze Watch is in eﬀect from Tuesday evening through Wednesday morning with low temperatures expected to reach 21 degrees in some areas. “A Freeze Watch means sub-freezing temperatures are possible,” said NWS. “These conditions could kill crops and other sensitive vegetation. A hard freeze capable of damaging blooming fruit trees, flowering bushes and tender vegeta-

He is also wanted in connection with a kidnapping and assault situation that happened in December. The suspect faces kidnapping and aggravated assault charges in that case. The Feb. 13 shooting happened about 2:30 a.m. at 1219 Mitchell Street. Green identified the victims as Charity Payne, 28, of the same address, and her boyfriend, Larry Hope, 28, of Byhalia. Payne and Hope were both hospitalized after the shooting. A four-year-old female who was also present at the home was unharmed. Green said it appears Allen had been at Payne’s residence on Mitchell Street earlier in the evening, and a physical altercation occurred. The shooter fled the scene on foot and law enforcement agencies have been looking for Allen since the shooting and the kidnapping situation on Dec. 21.

Across the State Associated Press

Acting prosecutors take over positions JACKSON — Harold Brittain is now acting as the top federal prosecutor in southern Mississippi and Robert Norman is filling that post in northern Mississippi. Gregory Davis had been U.S. attorney for southern Mississippi and Felicia Adams had been the U.S. attorney for northern Mississippi. Both resigned after Attorney General Jeff Sessions asked Friday for all U.S. attorneys who had been appointed by President Barack Obama to step down. President Donald Trump must now nominate new U.S. attorneys for Senate confirmation. Brittain and Norman automatically took over as the top assistant U.S. attorney in each district.

Vending machine made for homeless GULFPORT — Science students in south Mississippi have created a vending machine to provide free hygiene products to the homeless. Robotics students at Gulfport High School created the machine for a national contest, The Sun Herald reported. Their teacher, Clinton Brawley, challenged them to build a device that meets a community need by using STEAM research — an acronym for science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics. The robotics class decided to create something specifically for the 143 homeless students in the Gulfport School District. “They found out just how many students are homeless here in our own district, and they immediately wanted to

do something to help,” said Susan Bush, Gulfport student coordinator and adviser to the National Technical Honors Society.

7 gang members face federal charges JACKSON — Authorities said they have arrested seven gang members on federal drug charges. The Clarion-Ledger reported that five residents of Pike County, a Lincoln County resident and a resident of Belvidere, Illinois, were arrested Wednesday following a two-year investigation. Authorities say all seven were affiliated with the Black Gangster Disciples street gang. Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics Director John Dowdy said gangs are responsible for the majority of violent crime and drug activity in Mississippi and these types of crackdowns are necessary to curb violence in the state.

Man arrested in Biloxi bank robbery BILOXI — A Moss Point man has been arrested after being accused of robbing a Wells Fargo bank in downtown Biloxi. Media outlets report 44-year-old Brian Wesley Creel was arrested Friday on a robbery charge. Biloxi police Lt. Christopher De Back says Creel slipped a note to a teller demanding cash Friday afternoon at the bank. Creel then left the bank with an undisclosed amount of money and fled in a blue Dodge Dakota pickup truck. De Back says Gautier police saw Creel’s truck around 4:30 p.m. They stopped Creel and detained him until Biloxi police arrived and arrested him. It’s unclear if Creel has an attorney.

shortfalls. The cuts have caused widespread damage, according to Rep. Nick Bain (D-Alcorn). “The state’s Archives and History department was cut 34 percent ... even with two new museums being built in Jackson,” he said. Other large cuts to state agencies include 36 percent to the state public defender, 14 percent to the Department of Audit, 19 percent to the Department of Revenue, 36 percent to the Department of Authority, 21 percent to the Department of Environmental Quality, 14 percent to the Bureau of Narcotics and 30 percent to the oﬃce of public safety. “I believe this is the second time in history that, if the trends hold, we will collect less money then we did the year before,” said Bain. “Revenues are down and so we have to cut the budget.” Lawmakers won’t discuss budget concerns until the final few weeks

remain high priorities for lawmakers. Gov. Bryant has said the education funding rewrite debut could happen in a special session, but only if there is an acceptable plan both the House and Senate are happy with. “It’s amazing that even though it’s been one of the most talked about items this session, it’s hard to find anyone who knows anything about what’s going on,” said Bain of the possible MAEP rewrite. A placeholder bill approved by House members remains alive on a infrastructure bond bill. The possible $50 million bond for road and bridge repairs would be generated from voluntary Internet sales tax collected in the state, but the amendment will likely get shuﬄed out by the Senate. “We all understand the need for more money to be available for road and bridge repair,” said Parks. “I drive and ride on the same roads and understand that there’s a need, but the fix will likely not happen this session.”

of the session in early April. “The purpose is to wait on the latest numbers of tax revenue coming in for March,” said Rep. Lester “Bubba” Carpenter (R-Alcorn, Tishomingo). “This gives the legislators a little more insight about how revenue is coming in for the year. Our hope is the numbers are up and we can set a budget based on actual numbers.” Carpenter is hopeful revenue numbers will improve “I think this year holds a bright future for Alcorn and Tishomingo counties, but the same might not be said for the rest of the state, unfortunately,” added Carpenter. Bain agreed, “Hopefully we can find a creative way to increase revenues, but right now we must tighten our belt.” Two other items yet to be addressed will likely highlight the Capitol’s final weeks.

Across the Region Booneville Animal shelter sees improvements BOONEVILLE — Things are looking up at the Booneville Animal Shelter. The number of dogs housed at the shelter has dropped from 114 at the start of the year to seven as of last week under the leadership of Director Julie Barrett. Barrett was appointed director of the shelter by aldermen in late January following the shuttering of the non-profit Halfway Home Animal Shelter group that had previously operated the shelter due to serious health issues among their key staff members. Concerns were also raised at a board meeting by several citizens about the condition of animals at the facility. Barrett said they’ve worked hard to improve the shelter and reduce the number of animals housed. She said they’ve been working closely with several rescue groups from across the country to transfer dogs from the shelter out of the area to shelters where there is a larger demand for animals and they can be adopted. With a much smaller number of animals on hand, the individual attention available to the animals there has increased. All dogs are walked and get one-on-one play time daily. Beth Greenway Geno with the Friends of the Booneville Animal Shelter group, a volunteer group that helps support the shelter, said it’s been phenomenal to see the progress made through Barrett’s dedication and hard work as well as the work of volunteers and others. “She’s turned it around,” she said. Mississippi State University also recently returned with its mobile spay/neuter unit which

will visit once per month to spay or neuter all animals at the shelter. Every animal adopted out of the shelter will have been spayed or neutered before being adopted. Barrett said she encourages people to come by and visit the shelter and especially encourages those who have volunteered in the past or may be interested in volunteering now to return. Volunteers are needed for a variety of activities including walking and playing with animals to help get them socialized and ready to go to their new homes. Donations of money and supplies are also needed. The supply list includes bleach, lemon Pine-Sol, laundry detergent, towels for baths, paper towels, aluminum garbage cans, large dog food bowls, heat lamps, leashes, collars and toys for dogs. The shelter is open from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday and from 7 a.m. to noon on Saturday. The address is 200 Townhouse Drive. The adoption fee is $25. Call 662-416-7080 for more information.

School fifth graders will be held Wednesday, Aug. 2. Those remaining students who do not attend on Aug. 2 will attend the first time on Aug. 3. All students will attend Aug. 4. Fall Break is slated for Oct. 9-13. Students will be out for Thanksgiving on Nov. 20-24. Christmas break is set for Dec. 2 through Jan. 2 with Spring Break being March 26-30. The school board also agreed to partner with the Ramer Ruritan Club to repair the roof on the Cub Scout building. Ramer Ruritans sought the help pay for half of the $4,000 cost of the building which is the only structure that remains from the old Ramer High School. “The building is full of surplus and the Ruritans asked that we sell it and the money be used for half of the roof,” said Henry. The club expects the old desks and other school items to net $2,000 with the remaining portion to be covered by the school board. “This is something near and dear to my heart for several reasons,” said board chairman and former Ramer student Jarrell Stanfield. “The building has been everything at the school at one time.” Fourteen county teachers were granted tenure during the meeting. Teachers approved were Adamsville Elementary teachers Sarah Barber, Rebeka Rice DeStefano, Robyn Daniel Pettigrew, Amber Enzor and Lisa Smith. Adamsville Jr./Sr. High School teachers who received tenure were Jana Moore, Nathaniel Root, Shane Stults, Andrew Walz and Wesley Wood.

Corinth, Miss.

Many fights, few students, so far on school choice JACKSON — There was the Mississippi Senate last week, working late into the night, having another Titanic tussle over a school choice program. Must be a lot of kids affected, right? Jeff Amy Not so much. Between the state’s three charter schools Columnist and two programs that pay for children with learning disabilities to attend private schools, fewer than 1,000 students are being served this year. There are 482,000 students in traditional public schools, by contrast. Though supporters have big dreams and opponents have big fears for what could happen in the future, thus far, charter schools and vouchers are bit players on the Mississippi education scene. It’s not clear whether that’s going to change. Empower Mississippi, a group pushing expanded options, has set the ambitious goal of having 50,000 students, or just over 10 percent of the state’s current public school population, educated outside traditional public school settings by 2025. One looming threat to school choice is a Hinds County Chancery Court lawsuit challenging state money for charter schools. Those suing say charter schools are barred from getting state money because they are not overseen by the state superintendent or a local school superintendent, and thus under previous state Supreme Court decisions, don’t qualify as “free schools.” Even beyond politics and law, there are structural issues working against broad school choice in Mississippi. Especially for charter schools, it’s becoming increasingly clear that there’s just not much interest in serving areas outside of Jackson, where more than 500 children are enrolled in three charter schools. Nationwide, charter schools are an urban movement, and Mississippi is a rural state. When Mississippi lawmakers were debating charter schools, many traveled to a school in Helena-West Helena, Arkansas, that’s held up as an example of what could be done in rural areas of Mississippi. That nonprofit group now has five campuses in small towns in Arkansas’ Delta region. But there’s only one other rural charter school in Arkansas. There are 17 charter schools, by contrast, in and around Little Rock. The early phases of a Mississippi program to pay private school tuition for children with special education needs have faced some of the same issues. The state awarded 425 vouchers, but only 268 children are actually being reimbursed right now. State officials say some parents have had trouble finding private schools to take their children. The measure senators were debating, House Bill 1046, could help widen participation in the dyslexia voucher program, which currently has 160 enrollees. It would allow students to stay in private schools through grade 12, instead of ending aid after sixth grade. It would also allow the scholarships to be used at any private school accredited by a state, regional or national group, instead of only those accredited by the Mississippi Department of Education. Grant Callen, president of Empower Mississippi, says the bill will “give students struggling with dyslexia hope and new options for their education.” Opponents warn that it’s yet another move toward full-on private school subsidies. That’s a lot of energy on a program with so few students. School choice may be a meaningful part of Mississippi’s education system someday. But it’s not there yet.

How to replace Obamacare BY DICK MORRIS & EILEEN MCGANN Columnists

Repealing and replacing the Aﬀordable Care Act will generate big savings from cuts to the Medicaid component, rather than cuts to the middle-class health insurances the program offers. More and more federal spending under Obamacare is going to Medicaid -- after President Barack Obama expanded eligibility to bring 10 million new adults into the system at a cost of over $6,000 piece. Any attempt to repeal and replace Obamacare has to focus intently on the Medicaid component. Last year, Obamacare cost the U.S. taxpayer about $110 billion, about 60 percent of which was to pay for the expansion in Medicaid. Before the Obamacare law, eligibility for Medicaid varied widely by state, with some admitting only those below about a quarter of the poverty level. Obamacare raised the threshold to 133 percent of the poverty level or about $18,000 in income per person or about $24,000 for the average family The Supreme Court

gave states the right to opt in or opt out of this expansion and 19 states chose not to participate. The result has been that about half of the federal spending on Obamacare has gone to Medicaid expansion. With an estimated 10 million people newly eligible for Medicaid -- at an average cost of $6,000 -- the financial burden is certain to swell. In repealing Obamacare, Congress should consider changes in Medicaid to reduce its cost. These cuts could either be enacted by the feds as part of the repeal and replace package or they could be options left on the table for states to use. Generally, the states should divide their Medicaid populations into two categories: those whose incomes would have entitled them to coverage before the Obama expansion and those newly brought in. They should cut services and increase co-payments for the second group, people more able to pay. Congress (or the states) should consider limiting the services covered by Medicaid for the newly eligible population. Dental, men-

tal health, transportation, physical therapy, speech therapy and occupational therapy are all covered. Congress and the states should consider limiting coverage to all beneficiaries or to those newly eligible. Medicaid is a welfare program. It is not funded by people paying into the system for coverage. But it has been exempted from any eﬀorts to curb welfare spending. To make repeal and replace easier for Congress and the president, it is time to put cutting Medicaid services and spending on the table. The reason Obamacare costs too much, with high premiums and huge deductibles, is that the special interests crammed the enabling legislation with all sorts of minimum requirements for services to be included in all policies provided by the exchanges. Obamacare specifies a list of services to be covered: outpatient care; emergency care; hospitalization, surgery and overnight stays; pregnancy, maternity and newborn care; mental health and substance abuse; prescription drugs; rehabilitative and habilita-

tive services and devices; laboratory services; preventive and wellness services; chronic disease management; pediatric services including oral and vision care; birth control; and breastfeeding coverage. And they all must be covered in their entirety -- no exceptions, no limits. Congress should amend the law to allow catastrophic coverage only if that is what a patient wants. It should also eliminate some of the services on this wish list and curb others: • Make maternity care optional, particularly for men and those out of childbearing age. • Limit wellness and preventative care. • End substance abuse coverage and limit mental health coverage. • Limit nonemergency use of ERs. By adopting common sense limitations, Congress can lower the cost of Obamacare’s exchange-oﬀered policies. The rhetoric of “repeal and replace” is well and good, but cutting the costs of the program itself gives Congress a great deal more flexibility in replacing it.

Accountability, transparency vital to government We are very late in the session and have taken only small steps toward addressing the key issues of education funding, fixing our roads and bridges, and economic development. The House is currently involved in floor debate on Senate financial bills. Although there is still no sign of a new education funding formula, we understand that the Senate has introduced a “place holder” MAEP funding bill at level funding from last year -- which is still $ millions short of what is required to fully fund education. We are looking forward to hosting educators, teachers, students, families and education advocates to the Capitol on March 16. The rally, dubbed “A Place at the Table,” is an eﬀort to draw attention to the fact that education funding decisions are being made without input from the education community. Educators want to be involved in the decisionmaking and are asking for community information meetings and other means of involving the folks on the front lines of the issue. I believe that government should be conducted in the most transparent and accountable way possible. Certainly a government ser-

As a practicing attorney who often represents individuals with troubled homelife, I was glad to see movement on issues involving victims of abuse in the home. On Monday, the House passed Senate Bill 2680, which clarifies alternative relatives that may care for a child who is being abused or neglected. We adopted an amendment regarding a current divorce statute, making it easier for someone experiencing domestic violence to receive a divorce. The amendment says divorce would be allowed for people experiencing abusive physical conduct, either threatened or attempted, or abusive non-physical conduct including threats, intimidation, emotional or verbal abuse. The measure also allows for a victim to serve as the witness of the abuse. Prior to this, domes-

tic violence victims’ testimony had to be corroborated by an eye-witness. The bill passed unopposed. The House is holding strong for road and bridge repair and maintenance. Another attempt to provide money for roads and bridges passed in the form of Senate Bill 2939. Legislators oﬀered an amendment to a tax bill that would provide $50 million in bonds for bridge repairs and allocate use tax to the Mississippi Department of Transportation, counties and municipalities for infrastructure repair. The bill also states that in the event sales tax, referred to as “use tax” from out-of-state sellers, becomes federal law or the state experiences revenue growth, a certain percentage will be set aside for road and bridge improvements. The bill passed by a majority vote of 109-7. When the word came that federal inspectors had closed over 100 bridges in Mississippi because they were too dangerous to cross, it definitely got our attention. The MDOT has designated over 4,000 bridges in Mississippi as being deficient. While the measures we have passed in the House during the 2017 session oﬀer some relief,

it is only a portion of what we actually need. Some estimates say we need as much as $350 million per year for about ten years to appropriately address the very real dangers presented by the current state of our roads and bridges. We had hoped that there would be a special session called to address this important issue, but we do not think that is likely at this time.

How would Gorsuch vote on immigration? BY HOLBROOK MOHR AND SUDHIN THANAWALA Associated Press

If Neil Gorsuch wins confirmation to the Supreme Court, he could cast the deciding vote on President Donald Trump’s travel ban against immigrants from certain countries. But it’s far from certain how he would vote. According to an Associated Press review of Gorsuch’s rulings, he has not written extensively about immigration policy during a decade on the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. And the few rulings he has been involved in do not reveal how he might decide if given the opportunity to consider an immigration ban. Many of the cases involved people challenging their prison sentences for returning to the U.S. illegally after having been deported. He has often been deferential to immigration authorities, but has also sided with immigrants. “His record on immigration is a mixed bag, so it’s hard to predict how he would rule on

any challenge to the executive order,” says Melissa Crow, legal director for the American Immigration Council, which challenged Trump’s original ban. That order, which would have banned, people from seven majority Muslim counties, was put on hold last month by a federal appeals court, but Trump signed a new version March 6. That one removed Iraq from the list and eliminated a provision to give priority to religious minorities in allowing immigrants in.

The new order is to take eﬀect Thursday, pending the outcome of legal challenges. It would not aﬀect current visa holders but would bar new visas for people from Iran, Syria, Somalia, Sudan, Yemen and Libya. And it would temporarily shut down the U.S. refugee program. There have been eight justices on the court since the death of Justice Antonin Scalia last year. So for now there’s the possibility of a tie vote, which means the lower court ruling would stand.

Changing market dents rental cars

Rental car companies are struggling – and there’s no easy fix. Avis Budget Group and Hertz Global Holdings both reported net losses in the fourth quarter and fell short of Wall Street forecasts. Their outlooks for 2017 are tepid. Avis runs the Avis and Budget rental car brands; Hertz runs Thrifty, Dollar and Hertz. The companies face competition from ride-hailing services like Uber and startups like Turo, which let drivers rent out their own cars. One study last fall found that more than half of business travelers’ ground transportation expenses were for

ride-hailing services, not rental cars or taxis. Rental companies are also seeing the value of their inventory decline because there’s a glut of used cars on the market. Used car prices dropped 2 percent last year and are expected to fall again this year, Kelley Blue Book says. Longer term, used car values could crater as new technology like automatic emergency braking becomes standard and makes cars without it obsolete. “It seems the entire U.S. car rental market is no longer able to grow the way it used to,” Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas wrote in a recent note to investors.

MARKET SUMMARY G

Fed meeting

Inflation monitor

An interest-rate rise is among the topics the Federal Reserve’s monetary policymaking body will take up during two days of meetings beginning today. Fed officials are expected to discuss whether to raise the central bank’s key interest rate for the third time in 15 months, and whether to signal more hikes to come. Fed Chair Janet Yellen and several other Fed officials separately suggested earlier this month that the economy was sturdy enough to withstand a modest raising of loan rates.

Economists predict that a monthly measure of price changes before they reach consumers edged higher last month. They expect the Labor Department to report today that its producer price index rose by 0.1 percent in February. That would follow a gain of 0.6 percent in January. The index has been on a mostly upward trend in recent months as energy costs have risen, pushing inflation higher.
