So much to do, and so much to get done.......................to hell with a pandemic...............

Mississippi governor secretly designates April 'Confederate Heritage Month'

By Josh Israel -April 6, 2020 4:48 PM

Gov. Tate Reeves is facing criticism over his slow response to the coronavirus pandemic.

Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves quietly signed a proclamation on Friday designating April "Confederate Heritage Month."

Reeves is currently facing heavy criticism over his delayed response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Reeves' proclamation was posted by the Sons of Confederate Veterans, according to a report on Sunday by the Jackson Free Press, but did not appear to be publicized elsewhere. His office did not immediately respond to an inquiry about the designation.

WHEREAS, State law declares the the last Monday of April as Confederate Memorial Day, a legal holiday to honor those who served the Confederacy, and WHEREAS, as we honor all who lost their lives in this war, it is important for all Americans to reflect upon our nation's past," the proclamation read.
