The 601 Blueprint: Building A Better Mississippi
Our 601 Blueprint initiatives form the cornerstone of a stronger, more prosperous Mississippi and together we will foster economic growth and opportunity across the state.
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.
Take Action
Repeal Certificate of Need!
With health care costs continuing to rise, I hope you’ll support solutions that bring down prices and create more choices for patients. Repealing outdated Certificate of Need laws is a great step in that direction
Education Savings Accounts
We must take action and expand educational opportunities, so Mississippi families have greater choice and control. Whether suburban, urban, or rural, all students and parents deserve the freedom to choose the school that’s right for them.
Newsroom
At Americans for Prosperity-Mississippi, we believe CoN laws impede access to quality healthcare. By restricting the establishment of new healthcare facilities and the acquisition of medical equipment, these laws limit options for patients, particularly those in rural or underserved areas.
Universal access breaks away from the arbitrary limitations that district lines impose on students. Instead, students and their families can enroll in the school that works best for their unique needs. In other words, students have a choice.
