Mississippi House to debate redistricting in Old Capitol where Jim Crow, secession were passed

Taylor Vance reported for Mississippi Today, republished by DeSoto County News, that the House had planned to meet for the May 20 redistricting special session in the Old Capitol Museum because the current House chamber was under renovation, while the Senate planned to meet in the current Capitol. Reeves' May 13 rescission statement turns that venue-and-optics layer into background for the next redistricting fight.
