Good morning, Jackson.

On June 10, the Junior League of Jackson donated $100k to the Foundation for Mississippi History for the future Margaret Ann Crigler Park in downtown Jackson.

The state legislature passed House Bill 602 that will require seafood and crawfish sold in stores, markets, restaurants or food trucks to be clearly marked as domestic or imported starting July 1—customers can know exactly what they are buying.
