Local restaurateurs are moving into 2012 with fresh memories and expensive lessons from the year-end salmonella outbreak that sickened scores of Corinthians. Don Julio Mexican Restaurant is the business most closely associated with the recent outbreak, with a total of 59 Don Julio customers and employees testing positive for the food-borne illness. Now the restaurant is seeing an upswing in business, said a manager, while its staff and management step up their efforts to provide a safe dining experience for Don Julio’s patrons. “They recently did another inspection,” said Refugio Mendoza, Don Julio co-owner and manager. “We were careful before — but now we’re extremely careful.” Mendoza said business at Don Julio is improving every day, and customers are feeling more confident with every visit. For other local restaurants, the outbreak brought questions from worried customers and an increased awareness of food safety. “We stayed really busy around the holidays,” said Marcia Wigginton, owner of Mike’s Cafe on Harper Road. While Mike’s didn’t hurt for hungry customers, its staff had to field hundreds of questions from worried customers. “People came in here asking if we’d been checked out or if we’d found any bad produce. Dealing with some of the talk was hard,” Wigginton said. There was also talk among

We all scrubbed more and looked deep into the coolers.” Marcia Wigginton Owner, Mike’s Cafe local restaurant owners about how to protect their customers and businesses from the bacteria, she said. “It put everybody on their toes to find out where it came from,” Wigginton recalled. “It was terrible. None of us wanted to have it in our restaurants. We all scrubbed more and looked deep into the coolers.” At one local eatery, the salmonella scare prompted no decrease in business, but an increase in compassion for the people whose health — and livelihoods — were hurt by the ordeal. “We weren’t affected at all and couldn’t tell any difference,” said White Trolley manager Jeremiah Dees. “My heart goes out to the people who were. I feel for them. It could’ve happened to anybody.” Looking at the big picture, the economic impact of the 2011 salmonella outbreak Please see OUTBREAK | 2A

MHP reports fatality, Boys & Girls Club honors young man increased DUI arrests BY STEVE BEAVERS

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

The Mississippi Highway Patrol reported one traffic fatality in the northeast district during the holiday weekend period and an increase in the number of DUI arrests and traffic citations issued across the state. Statewide, three fatalities occurred on the highways during the New Year’s holiday period, rising from one last year. The local district’s fatality occurred about 4:20 a.m. Friday on Mississippi Highway 2 in Tippah County near the Chapman community. Jacob R. Bryant, 21, of Ripley, died in the single-vehicle rollover crash. MHP said it appeared he lost control of the 2003 Chevrolet Blazer he was driving and was ejected from the vehicle. Bryant was not wearing a

seat belt. An unbuckled passenger was treated for nonlife threatening injuries. The other fatalities occurred in the Gulfport and Batesville regions. Statewide, MHP made 156 DUI arrests, up from 108 last year, and issued 3,501 traffic citations, up from 2,802 last year. MHP investigated 104 crashes in the holiday period, which ran from Friday through Monday. The local troop’s public affairs officer, Ray Hall, noted the year ended with an increase of more than 50 percent in the number of fatalities in the northeast district during 2011 compared to 2010. The district had 36 fatalities during the year, and

He is now set to compete for the Mississippi Youth of the Year and a $1,000 scholarship from Tupperware Brands Corporation. “The Youth of the Year program celebrates youth who have overcome enormous odds and demonstrated exceptional character and accomplishments,” said Grice. “Terrel is exactly the kind of kid that the award was designed for.” Payton’s path hasn’t always

A horse is a horse — unless the horse is Joey BY TERRY BURNS Movie Critic

“War Horse,” PG-13, *****plus, Jeremy Irvine, Emily Watson, David Thewilis, Peter Mullian, Niels Arestrup, Tom Hiddleston; Touchstone film; Director Steven Spielberg; length — 146 minutes

“W

ar Horse” brought back emotional memories for me when I rode horses with my dad and friends. I learned to love horses and their dedication to their owners. We had some wonderful times on the trail. The film is about a thoroughbred horse that is basically drafted into the armed services during World War I. At the beginning of the film, the

audience observes Albert Narracott (Jeremy Irvine) watching a colt run the pastures of a neighbor until the young colt is old enough to be sold. At an auction, Albert’s father buys the horse for his son and Albert has found a friend to train and ride the countryside of Devon. He names the horse Joey. Albert lives on a farm in Devon, in an English county with his father Ted (Peter Mullian) and his mother Rose (Emily Watson). Ted has some dark secrets he keeps to himself, because they involve the time he spent fighting a war. Most people who were involved in horrible situations during war do not like to talk about their experiences. When the Narracotts’ landlord, Lyons (David Thewilis), hounds Ted for the rent on his place,

Joey has to be taught to plow the fields in order to earn enough money to pay the landlord. Then when World War I begins, Ted has to sell the horse to the army. This is the point the story plunges into the drama of war. From that moment until the final credits, it becomes a heartbreaking account of a boy and his horse trying to get back together. The audience must face the horrors and devastation of war, and watch soldiers ride horses into battle to fight for their country. Joey is a faithful horse to his owner during the war and he even finds another horse as a friend along with crossing the paths of many people, but he misses Albert. Albert joins the army in an attempt to find his

faithful companion and bring him back home. This decision demonstrates how much Albert cares about Joey. Several stories collide as the viewer watches the awfulness of war explode. Innocent people who are not involved in the war are hurt because of the fighting taking place around them. All of the stories interconnect in one way or the other showing how war affects everyone whether they are directly fighting or just innocent bystanders. The famous words of Alfred Lord Tennyson, “I am a part of all whom I have met,” come to mind when describing the many stories that happen to Joey and how Joey touches so many lives. One story involves two brothers. One was too young to fight, but

he enlisted anyway. His brother promised his father he would look after him. Another story involves a grandfather and his granddaughter. Joey is a part of all the stories. Metaphorically, directly or accidentally, Joey will touch the hearts of all who see this excellent film. In “War Horse,” we observe stories from German soldiers as well as English soldiers, showing the devastation of war from both sides. I have always loved the scene of the cowboy riding into the sunset, and the artwork of Lon Megargee, “The Last Drop,” showing a cowboy giving his horse the last drop from his canteen by pouring it into his hat and allowing the horse to drink it. The cowboy is taking care of a dedicated

friend. The final scene of “War Horse” shows someone riding a horse as the sun sets and the sky is red — “Red sky at night, cowboy’s delight.” It is a beautiful scene with a lot of meaning. I highly recommend this movie for the whole family. Just remember it is PG-13 because of the war scenes. Terry Burns is technology coordinator for the McNairy County School System. A life-long movie buff, he can be contacted by email at burns984@bellsouth.net. Terry’s movie grading scale: five-plus stars — as good as it gets; five stars — don’t miss; four stars — excellent; three stars — good; two stars — fair; one star — poor; no stars — don’t bother.

52 percent of those were not wearing seat belts. “It’s senseless to see over half of your fatal

crashes involve unbuckled drivers,” said Hall. “It’s proven seat belts save lives. Our focus this year will be to drive down the fatality rate in this dis-

trict by strictly enforcing the seat belt laws.” The recent graduation of a cadet class will add more troopers to the highways.

“This will give us more visibility and more manpower and will hopefully help decrease our fatal crashes,” said Hall. MHP offers safety

classes focusing on the dangers of drinking and driving, distracted driving and not wearing a seat belt. Available to high

She’s basically known as the mother of ACE.” Doty’s dedication and loyalty to her job as executive secretary of ACE brought her through a career serving for three general managers and 21 board members. She is also dedicated to helping her fellow human beings away from work, Nanney explained. “Her special calling in life is to help people. She’s always going to nursing homes and hospitals trying to help people. She’s a special, special lady. Her way of life is to help other people.

That’s the kind of person she is,” Nanney said. On Sept. 14, the power company’s board of directors made a resolution to name the ACE board room the “Gail Doty Board Room” in honor of her 50-plus years of service and the example of dedicated work exemplified by Doty. “With class, dignity and unwavering love for ACE, Gail Doty has devoted her career of 50 years to making sure that the Management and Board of ACE have always been prepared to handle their du-

ties of service to the members,” the resolution said. The upcoming reception at ACE Power is expected to draw people from around the region whose lives have been touched in one way or another by this extraordinary and dedicated employee. “Gail is known all over the TVA area because of the job she’s done dealing with them over these many years,” Nanney said. “She’s friends with so many people — folks from far and wide will be at the reception.”

In other business, the new tax collector, Larry Ross, addressed the board to request a budget increase in order to keep his predecessor, Greg Younger, working in the office for a few more months to assist in the transition. He said the office will need a budget increase of $13,720. The board tabled the request until the next meeting to give the new supervisors time to review the budget. Ross said he’s planning to keep the same employees in the collector’s office. “It already runs real smooth and there’s just a few things that I’m going to change,” he said. Because of the MLK holiday, the next meeting date is Tuesday, Jan. 17, at 9 a.m. The board will continue to have regular meeting dates of the first and third Monday of each month at 9 a.m. at the Alcorn Chancery Building.

Obama appeals to Iowa Dems on caucus night Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Inserting his voice into a big night for Republicans, President Barack Obama was appealing to Iowa Democrats during the first balloting in the GOP presidential campaign, seeking to counter months of withering criticism in the state that launched his presidential ambitions four years ago. Obama was hosting a live video teleconference for Democrats attending precinct caucuses across Iowa, outlining his progress dur-

ing the first term and asking for their help in the upcoming campaign. Beyond the lead-off caucuses, Iowa is expected to be hotly contested in the fall election. The president’s re-election campaign emailed supporters a video of Obama’s Iowa victory speech in January 2008, arguing he has kept the promises he made that night: making health care more affordable, cutting taxes for the middle class, ending the war in Iraq and reducing the nation’s dependence on foreign oil.

White House press secretary Jay Carney said Obama would thank supporters for their help and discuss his efforts to keep the promises he made in Iowa four years ago. But Carney said the president “has a lot of work to do before he engages aggressively in the general election. That will come in due time.” Obama was wasting little time getting back in front of voters following a Hawaiian vacation spent largely out of the spotlight. Campaign officials said Obama was expected to take ques-

tions from voters during the Iowa session, which was airing only for those who attended the caucus meetings. On Wednesday, Obama will travel to Cleveland for an event focused on the economy. Obama was seeking to counter months of pounding by Republicans in Iowa and by the Republican National Committee, which has assailed Obama’s economic record and tagged him as a president who has failed to live up to lofty expectations.

the outcome of his life.” Should Payton win at the state level, he would move on to compete for the title of Region Youth of the Year and an additional $10,000 scholarship. Five regional winners will advance to Washington, D.C. for the national award and up to $50,000 in scholarship money. “The mission of the Boys & Girls Club is to en-

able all young people to realize their full potential as responsible and caring citizens,” added Grice. “The Corinth Boys & Girls Club has helped Terrel build self-esteem and confidence in having knowledge of where to start to make a better life for himself ... the Club gave him the inspiration to believe in himself again and get his life back on track.”

A call for sweeping change in new year BY HENRY ROSS America was born in revolution. A revolutionary spirit stirred our young nation to throw off tyranny and win its freedom, risking everything in the process. Revolutionary ideas led the patriots, who humbled the world’s greatest power, to later limit the power of their own new government. From the Founders’ relentless pursuit of freedom, a profound truth emerged: The American Revolution will never end while liberty prevails. For many years, liberty did prevail. Congress largely abided by its constitutional constraints. The Bill of Rights was honored. Governance of everyday economic affairs was left to the states. Federal courts interpreted the Constitution instead of rewriting it. Yet, in our time, liberty’s revolution has faltered. Its spirit scarcely exists among those sent to Washington today. Under their charge, regardless of party, government has exploded. Liberty is under siege. An out-of-control federal judiciary adds to the misery. Constitutional restraint is long forgotten. Something is terribly amiss. Are we willing to rekindle the revolutionary spirit of our forefathers and return to freedom’s path? First, we must lay bare the problem. America changed when politicians’ desire for Washington power and prestige finally replaced old-fashioned notions of limited government and political sacrifice. The way to stay there is simple -- spend money, borrow to the hilt. Convince everybody it’s for their good. Once the line was crossed, and with seeming impunity, Congress created endless federal programs and bureaucracies to hand out trillions of dollars. Bigger government brought greater influence. Dispensing money and influence wins elections and lengthens congressional careers. But it also threatens our future. We’re drowning in debt run-up by Congress. The current total is $15 trillion. Add another $2.1 trillion by early 2013 from their debt ceiling deal. Spending cuts? They’re slowdowns in future spending growth. Congress will still spend $46 trillion over the next 10 years, and add at least $8.5 trillion to the nation’s tab. Further credit downgrades, higher interest costs and inflation are ahead. Soon, the dollar will be displaced as the world’s reserve currency. We’ll no longer be able to print money to buy foreign oil and import other goods. Suddenly, we’ll be poorer. All because of Washington’s spending spree. Our social fabric is unraveling, largely due to Great Society benefit changes Congress made to welfare programs. Subsidization of childbearing outside of marriage has caused the virtual disappearance of marriage among recipients. Illegitimate birth rates have sky-rocketed. Without fathers in the home, generations of youth have dropped-out of school, succumbing to drugs, gangs and crime. Millions more have joined the system. To top it off, Supreme Court liberals, without authority, have rewritten the Constitution, banning school prayer, creating abortion rights whole cloth, banishing religion from the public square and giving Congress say over every aspect of American life. Next up, invention of a constitutional right to homosexual marriage. Simply having Republicans in control won’t return America to limited government. Government expanded, the debt doubled and the Supreme Court remained unchallenged the last time Republicans ran Washington. We need true revolutionaries to change Washington: Statesmen willing to do whatever it takes — losing elections if necessary — to rein in government. They last appeared in the 1990s, shutting down the government to curtail spending. Four years of federal surpluses followed. The economy soared. A revolutionary remnant battles on in Congress. While most Representatives fell into line, dozens of House Republicans opposed the leadership’s timid spending and debt compromises in 2011, including the debt ceiling increase. These compromises failed to significantly attack deficit spending or roll back government — jobs these conservatives were sent to do. Bogus political claims that Social Security and the military wouldn’t be paid in event of a shutdown didn’t deter them. Constitutional government can be restored, but America must send more revolutionaries to the fight in 2012. Fearlessness and tenacity are required. Federal spending can be frozen, then substantially reduced, federal regulations gutted, departments and agencies dismantled, and entitlements reformed. Constitutionally indifferent Supreme Court Justices can be impeached and traditional marriage preserved. Taxes on income, capital and inheritance can be lowered or eliminated. Economic growth will erupt and jobs will return. Personal freedom will flourish. The Revolution waits. 2012 is our chance. Liberty or tyranny? Which path will we choose?

He ran for the U.S. Congress in the 2010 Republican primary.)

Thatcher versus her nation’s decline Margaret Thatcher on the cover of Newsweek, or — the next best thing — Meryl Streep on the cover as the former British prime minister in a new biopic. Thatcher is a rich theme. If the types who expound on such things didn’t so hate her politics, she’d launch a thousand dissertations on those inexhaustible academic themes of class and gender. As the daughter of a grocer, she was looked down upon as the personification of, in the words of one highfalutin critic, “the worst of the lower-middleclass.” As a woman in a man’s world, she was venomously attacked by her opponents as a “b----” or “the bag.” At this moment in our history, though, it is Thatcher’s central purpose that is most important: Her unyielding rejection of British decline. She rejected it with every bone in her middle-class body even though sophisticates scoffed at such a naive nationalism. She rejected it even though the grandees of her own party said it was inevitable. She rejected it even though she knew reversing it meant forcing a wrenching political and economic crisis.

The acrid whiff of decline is in the air in America, in the enduringly weak Rich employment picture, in Lowery the spiralNational ing debt, in Review the persistent pessimism about our prospects and in the intellectual preparation for a “postAmerican world.” Part of the volatility in the Republican presidential field is the unfulfilled hunger for a Thatcher-like figure. She had the urgency of an emergency-room surgeon, the rhetorical subtlety of a blowtorch, and the conviction of a desert monk. Tory MP John Biffen called her “a tigress surrounded by hamsters.” But she matched her fearlessness to sound judgment and a positively Prussian work ethic. Needless to say, Thatchers aren’t often on offer. The country she wanted to save was by the late 1970s an embarrassing wreck. After World War II, Britain’s leaders had grounded the ship of state on the shoals of socialism. The country was broke and beset by maliciously pow-

erful unions. Humiliatingly, it had to go to the International Monetary Fund for a loan. Henry Kissinger told President Gerald Ford in 1975, “Britain is a tragedy — it has sunk to begging, borrowing, stealing.” Claire Berlinski, author of the book-length study of Thatcher titled “There Is No Alternative,” quotes Michael Howard, a subsequent leader of the Tory party, “The air of defeatism which was the prevailing climate of the time was the economic and social equivalent of Munich.” It took considerable moral courage for Thatcher to insist that practically everyone else was wrong — including the accommodationists in her party — and that Britain could take an entirely different path. She ran on a party manifesto in 1979 that excoriated declinism. “She had been elected to reverse Britain’s decline,” writes John O’Sullivan, the former Thatcher aide and author of the “The President, the Pope, and the Prime Minister,” “not to explain it smoothly away like virtually every other political leader.” It wasn’t enough to rage against Britain’s fate without correctly diagnosing the source of its sick-

ness. As Berlinski notes, she made an unsparing and comprehensive case against socialism. “In the end,” Thatcher thundered, “the real case against socialism is not its economic inefficiency, though on all sides there is evidence of that. Much more fundamental is its basic immorality.” Bold but never reckless, as prime minister Thatcher undertook a comprehensive free-market program to tame inflation, restrain spending, cut taxes, privatize industries, bring unions to heel and deregulate the financial industry. At one point, her approval rating dipped to 23 percent, but her vindication was a sustained return to dynamism and growth. Her victory in the Falklands War represented a turning point in national pride. She was Ronald Reagan’s partner in defeating the Soviets. By the end of her career, she had accomplished what Britain’s consensus had once deemed impossible. In today’s America, the circumstances are very different, and the basic challenge is profoundly the same. Thatcher’s lesson is that decline is inevitable only if its self-fulfilling prophets prevail.

Hockey game helps resolve to be tougher COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — What it was, was hockey. I had never been to a hockey game in my entire life. Not that I haven’t had the opportunity. For a few years, Alabama’s Birmingham had a professional hockey team, the Birmingham Bulls, which petered away to obsolescence in what may be the pigskin capital of the world. Game called for lack of interest. The Birmingham Bulls made just a little more sense to me than the Ice Gators of Lafayette, La. When I spent part of each year in Henderson, near Lafayette, I could have gone to see a hockey game. The Ice Gators just sounded too oxymoronic, I guess, or else I was too busy swatting mosquitoes to hie to an ice rink for entertainment. But I’m resolving to be broader-minded and tougher in 2012, so I agreed to go to a hockey game. Turns out, there’s

a lot of peripheral ritual that I enjoyed. There I was at a German restauRheta rant fueling up on poJohnson tatoes and Columnist bratwurst to have stamina just to watch. Friends at Colorado College here are big hockey fans, and at their suggestion we all met to eat and listen to a few rounds of “Beer Barrel Polka” played by grown men in Pinocchio outfits. Something about the hearty food and jovial scene got me in the mood. Colorado College is a great hockey school. Colorado College is to collegiate hockey what LSU is to football and Mississippi to Miss Americas. Here hockey makes sense. Ponds freeze, and kids play hockey the way Southern children skinnydip. Out here, you might say it’s indigenous sport.

I expected hockey to be exciting, and it was. I expected it to be rough and tumble, possibly violent. I’ve read the usual descriptions that explain the fights. I had, in fact, just finished a long New York Times article called “Blood on the Ice” about the Canadian NHL player who died for his sport. What I didn’t expect was the beauty. The beauty blindsided me. The referees, especially, were performing ballet on ice. Unencumbered by all the crustacean-looking equipment the players must wear, referees glide about like Dorothy Hamill wearing stripes. Before the game, I had gone to the computer and looked up “Basic Ice Hockey Positions.” The only one that made sense to me was the goalie, “perhaps the toughest position in all of sports,” the tutorial said. Maybe so, but it seemed much tougher to me to get the puck down the ice and anywhere near the goal

than to keep it out. Plus, the goalie wasn’t exhausted by skating. He mostly stood there at the ready. And the night I watched, Colorado College’s goalie didn’t do much about keeping the Anchorage, Alaska, team’s puck from piercing the net. Alaska won. I loved the music. It was extremely loud and raucous, and I kept thinking about the time a newspaper sent me to a Memphis “gentleman’s club” to see if pole dancers were obeying a city ordinance about how many feet they must stay from the customers. That kind of music. There were no fights. The crowd had a few cheers I can’t repeat in a family newspaper, but you hear that kind of thing at football games, too. As one fan said in a hockey chat room, “If you can’t take it, go watch badminton.” (To find out more about Rheta Grimsley Johnson and her books, visit www. rhetagrimsleyjohnsonbooks.com.)

State House, Senate convene 2012 session BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi lawmakers convened their 2012 session Tuesday with a history-making Republican majority, as the House elected Philip Gunn of Clinton as its new presiding officer. Republicans already controlled the 52-member Senate, and they took control of the 122-member House in the Nov. 8 elections. This is the first time since Reconstruction that the GOP has held the majority in both chambers of the Mississippi Legislature, and Gunn is the first Republican House speaker since then.

Republicans decided weeks ago that Gunn was their choice for speaker, and Democrats did not nominate a candidate Tuesday. Gunn, a 48-year-old attorney, was elected speaker without opposition and received a standing ovation from members of both parties. He pledged to seek unity in House. “I will do my best to serve you with honesty, fairness and dignity,” Gunn said. Gunn called for unity and said the House has been divided for too long by opinion, age, race, region and party. He said he also has been guilty of engaging in some types of division, and he apologized for it.

“Let us work together to make Mississippi better than it has ever been before,” Gunn said. Republican Tate Reeves of Flowood will be inaugurated Thursday as lieutenant governor, the Senate’s presiding officer. Republican Phil Bryant, who will be inaugurated as governor Jan. 10, is in his final days as lieutenant governor and presided over the Senate on Tuesday. Both legislative chambers on Tuesday unanimously elected their second-highest officers. Republican Terry Brown of Columbus was chosen Senate president pro tempore, and Republican Greg Snowden of Meridian was chosen House

speaker pro tempore. “We’ve got a lot of situations — I don’t call them problems. But we’ve got a lot of situations to address. In about a week from now, we’ve got to get to work,” Brown said. Snowden reminded House members that the campaign season is over. “Put it behind you,” he said. “Let it go.” Republicans hold a 3121 majority in the Senate and a 64-58 majority in the House. Reeves could announce Senate committee assignments by this Friday, his staff has said. Gunn told The Associated Press on Tuesday that he hopes to announce House committee assignments and chairmanships by Jan.

13. House members are filling out questionnaires on where they’d like to serve. Committee chairmen in the Mississippi Legislature generally have power over which bills live or die. Rep. Robert Johnson, D-Natchez, said the committee assignments will be the first real indication of how power will be distributed. “So far, everything has been sort of a get-along love fest,” Johnson said Tuesday. “But we’ve got big, serious issues to deal with this session — education, economic development, health care.” Legislators are scheduled to meet four months, as is customary

during the first year of a four-year term. Sessions the next three years will be 90 days each. The House has 32 new members and the Senate has 15 new ones. Democrat Billy McCoy of Rienzi, who has been House speaker the past two terms, did not seek re-election to the Legislature in 2011, nor did Democrat J.P. Compretta of Bay St. Louis, who was House speaker pro tem under McCoy. Republican Billy Hewes of Gulfport, who was Senate speaker pro tem last term, is no longer in the Legislature. Hewes ran unsuccessfully for lieutenant governor in 2011, losing to Reeves in the GOP primary.

Lawmakers kicking off 4-month 2012 session BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

JACKSON — The Mississippi Legislature has convened the 2012 session in Jackson with Republicans controlling both chambers for the first time since Reconstruction. Both houses were addressing housekeeping matters early Tuesday. Both chambers were packed with lawmakers and their relatives. It was standing-room-only in the House where Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann presided until a speaker is officially elected. Philip Gunn of Clinton is on track to be elected speaker of the 122-member House, and fellow Re-

publican Greg Snowden of Meridian is expected to be chosen to the chamber’s second-highest leadership post as speaker pro tempore. Hosemann welcomed House members to the Capitol, saying that while everyone had different ideas about what was good for Mississippi, “your differences should never be personal.” Republican Phil Bryant of Brandon was presiding over the Senate in his final days as lieutenant governor. He’ll be succeeded Thursday by Republican Tate Reeves of Flowood. Reeves is backing the GOP’s Terry Brown of Columbus as Senate president pro tempore. Bryant will be sworn in as governor on Jan. 10.

Legislators are scheduled to meet four months, as is customary during the first year of a fouryear term. Sessions the next three years will be 90 days each. The House has 32 new members and the 52-member Senate has 15 new people. The GOP holds a 21-11

majority among House freshmen and a 13-2 majority among Senate freshmen. That large incoming class, combined with the switch of Sen. Gray Tollison of Oxford to the GOP from the Democratic Party, gives Republicans a 31-21 margin in the Senate. That’s enough to pass tax and revenue

bills without any Democrats. Among the big issues that Bryant, Reeves and lawmakers have identified for the coming year are: ■ Crafting a state budget challenged by tight revenues. ■ Broadening the state’s charter school law.

■ Examining new state restrictions on illegal immigrants. ■ Considering changes to the state’s public employee pension system. ■ Drawing new districts for lawmakers. ■ Restricting Attorney General Jim Hood’s ability to hand out lucrative legal work.
