Here’s what you may have missed: SAM meetings

October 26, 2020- Northern District Meeting with Congressman Trent Kelly

SAM Board Member, Tom Pittman, Pittman Construction, hosted Congressman Trent Kelly along with an invitation only- covid -19 friendly luncheon. The event was held out of doors at Romies in Tupelo and allowed for social distancing. Along with Congressman Kelly, the event had a who’s who of subs, supplies and contractors, along with local state legislators.

The Congressman, shared his directions for continuing his commitment of economic growth. He stressed the importance for getting everyone to the polls, and to insure that voters are aware of all of the candidates. He stated that many elections are ‘under-voted’, which means voters stop after marking the ballot for President. This under-voting can put him and Senator Cindy Hyde Smith in jeopardy. Remember, US Senators, unlike the Congressman is voted on throughout the state. So just because US Senator Roger Wicker call Tupelo his home, we will vote (in Tupelo) this year for Senator Smith.
