Priorities

Foundational Education

At Americans for Prosperity Mississippi, we are dedicated to policies that ensure every child receives an education best suited for their unique needs and that every family is empowered with the opportunity to choose. Every student learns differently and policies that give parents the choice to place their child in a learning environment that is best suited for their student’s individual needs benefits everyone.

Health Care

Our state faces an ever growing need to transform how we deliver health care to individuals. Driving policies that remove barriers to access and affordability while, ensuring transparency are critical to solving the challenges we face not only in Mississippi, but across the country. We believe that needless government barriers should be removed to allow a more patient centered focus to the health care needs of every Mississippian.

The Economy

The prosperity of Mississippians through economic policies that encourage businesses to thrive, job growth and an entrepreneurial spirit while not burdening taxpayers with unnecessary subsidies are key to success. Providing workers freedom and flexibility, removing unnecessary regulations and licensing, ensuring we are not picking winners and losers while addressing unnecessary spending and responsible tax reforms will transform our state to be competitive and ensure economic growth.

IS IT TIME FOR A PERSONAL OPTION?

A Personal Option rests on a simple idea: Health care is personal, so we should be able to choose the health care arrangements that are right for us.
A Personal Option offers more individualized choices — from insurance coverage to new treatments and therapies — and trusts you to make your own decisions. It is about giving you the high quality care you deserve from the doctors you trust at a price you can afford — without new taxes!

ENERGY REFORM PLEDGE
