Kayla Tew: The people have spoken on personhood
To the members of the Mississippi House Constitution Committee:
On Nov. 8, 2011, Mississippi spoke on the issue of personhood. Fifty-eight percent of our great state voted down Initiative 26. Our citizens were well-informed when they voted. We were not mislead or influenced by scare tactics. We knew that personhood is not right for our state, nor is it right for any state.
Voters have tough choices on initiatives
Mississippi voters face three ballot initiatives in Tuesday’s election, with the most controversial and hotly-contested being Initiative 26, also known as the “Personhood Initiative.”
