The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is back in Mississippi

During the last round of judicial elections, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce spent over $1,000,000 on advertising for their pro-business candidates. Without transparency the Mississippi people had no way of knowing who was pumping this money into the race. The Chamber of Commerce candidates rolled. The Chamber of Commerce now has a 7-2 advantage in our state's highest court. I think we have seen how one-sided this court is in the favor of business. Read it here.

Well the fellows who bought you our corrupted Supreme Court are back with their pick for Senator. You guessed it none other than ole Rubber Stamp Roger. Ronnie Musgrove out-raised Roger Wicker last quarter among individual donors. Yet Wicker has a nearly 4-1 edge in fundraising. Hmmm...

The Meridian Star:

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s VoteForBusiness Bandwagon is scheduled to roll into Meridian this morning to promote the U.S. Chamber’s endorsement of U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS).

The VoteForBusiness Bandwagon started out on Friday to cover more than 8,000 miles in 32 states, including scheduled appearances at the Democratic National Convention and the Republican National Convention.
