MISSISSIPPI 2016 LEGISLATIVE ROSTER
On behalf of the more than 1.8 million Mississippians who receive electric service from an electric power association, we are pleased to present the 2016 Mississippi Legislative Roster and salute the men and women who have chosen to serve. We share their love of this great state, where the nation’s first rural electric cooperative was formed in 1934. Our primary function is providing affordable and reliable electric service to our member/owners. They are hard-working, community-minded people who make valuable contributions to the quality of life we all enjoy. It is in this same spirit that we serve as their voice with elected officials, and we look forward to working with them to ensure Mississippi continues to be a great place to live and work. We are the Electric Power Associations of Mississippi, a statewide trade organization serving as the unified voice of all electric cooperatives in Mississippi. Our cooperatives, their employees and boards of directors, work tirelessly to ensure each member is represented and receives excellent service from his or her electric service provider. We will never lose sight of the importance of listening and responding to those we serve. Our success is based on a long-standing commitment to common goals and our members’ needs, and we are proud of our tradition of providing exceptional services along with superior customer service. We are especially pleased with our leadership role in the continual development of the communities we serve. Working together, we have the power to move Mississippi forward! Michael Callahan CEO

* Appropriation, revenue, and local and private bills, and bills to restore suffrage are excluded from these deadlines. For purposes of the deadlines herein set forth, the term "revenue bills" shall include only those bills whose primary purpose is to increase or decrease taxes or to authorize the issuance of bonds or the borrowing of money. Bills which are primarily for regulatory purposes which have revenue provisions included shall not be considered as revenue bills for deadline purposes. The deletion from a bill of the features which made it a revenue bill shall render the bill a general bill for deadline purposes.
** Conference reports on all bills must be filed with the Secretary/Clerk no later than the time of adjournment on the day prior to being called up and considered. Appropriation bills which actually appropriate money and are recommitted for further conference are excluded from the requirement that the subsequent conference report be filed and lay on table one (1) day before being considered; however, original action must be taken on all appropriation conference reports by 2:00 p.m. on the 84th/119th day and subsequent reports must be filed no later than 6:00 p.m.
*** Requests for general bills and constitutional amendments to be drafted must be made no later than 8:00 p.m. on the 9th/45th day. The Rules Committee of the House or Senate, as the case may be, may authorize any member of its respective house to make requests, for one or more general bills or constitutional amendments to be drafted, after the expiration of the deadline for making such drafting requests but before the deadline for introduction of bills and constitutional amendments, upon a determination by the Rules Committee that such drafting requests are in response to conditions of an emergency nature arising subsequent to the deadline for making requests for general bills and constitutional amendments to be drafted.
+ Committee reports and conference reports that are subject to being filed on these deadlines must be filed with the Secretary/Clerk no later than 8:00 p.m. Whenever the word “day� appears in this rule, it shall mean calendar day.
The above schedule shall not be deviated from except by the passage of a concurrent resolution adopted by a vote of two-thirds (2/3) of the membership of the House and Senate present and voting. 47

As a not-for-profit, an electric power association pays capital credits to members or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the year. n A board of directors, composed of members elected by the membership, governs an electric power association. e board establishes bylaws, policies and rates that reflect the individuality and needs of the membership. As local leaders, directors are responsive to local needs. n Employees are local residents who share a personal and professional interest in the well-being of their community. ey embody the cooperative spirit of community involvement by participating in worthwhile causes. n Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their members reduce energy costs. n Mississippi’s electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each other restore service to members during major power outages. ey may also obtain assistance from (or offer it to) out-ofstate electric cooperatives.

everyday life!
Helping you to enjoy
Mississippi’s electric power associations have a long-standing tradition of promoting electrical safety and energy efficiency—a natural fit with our initial mission of extending affordable electric service to everyone who wanted it. We have helped generations of electric power association members make informed choices every time they flip a switch. We are member-owned electric cooperatives whose viability reflects our commitment to providing valuable, money-saving services to our members. So it’s only natural for electric power associations to work in the interests of members. Our broad mission of service also encompasses a range of community service activities. With a work force exceeding 2,900, electric power association employees are respected business leaders and civic-minded volunteers in small towns and rural communities throughout Mississippi. We help grow communities through economic development, leadership and volunteerism. We are more than an electric utility service. We are part of the family of electric cooperative members, and we work every day to make life better in our great state.
