House agrees Gov. Reeves should reveal who funded his inauguration


JACKSON • Legislation that would require Gov. Tate Reeves and future governors to publicly show who paid for their inauguration festivities easily passed the House on Wednesday.
Mississippi politicians and candidates are required to disclose with the Mississippi Secretary of State's Office who donates to their campaigns and how they spend that campaign money in the interest of public transparency and accountability.

House Bill 1019 would require governors to take those same steps when they fundraise for their inauguration events, such as the inaugural ball, ceremony and other parties or parades. Many other states have laws that require this transparency for inauguration funds. The bill passed the House 116-1 and heads to the Senate for consideration.

Gov. Reeves' inaugural nonprofit raised $1.6M from unknown donors, paid family member's company | State Government


JACKSON
• A nonprofit set up to fund Gov. Tate Reeves’ inauguration last year paid nearly $150,000 to a business owned by the governor’s brother and sister-in-law, documents show.
Leigh Reeves served as executive director for the now-dissolved inaugural nonprofit while her company, Snapshot Publishing LLC, was paid for marketing materials, gifts, printing and designs, according to documents filed with the IRS last month.
The filing says Leigh Reeves, who is married to Todd Reeves, did not collect a salary in her director role. In a statement, a spokeswoman for the governor said “nearly all” of the nonprofit’s payment to Snapshot went directly to materials for the inauguration, and Leigh Reeves’ work planning the events was “largely voluntary.”
