Campaign finance reform bill gets cold response; lawmakers axe transparency component by Geoff Pender, Mississippi Today March 6, 2024 Inflamed by lack of investigation or enforcement of what he claimed were flagrant campaign finance violations by his opponent, Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann after winning his reelection primary last summer vowed to push for reform.
