Jim Hood: Criticizes tax give-aways to out-of-state corporations

Hood criticized the Legislature's giving away hundreds of millions in tax cuts to out-of-state corporations. He floated expanding Medicaid, saying "we shouldn't leave hundreds of millions of federal dollars on the table." He expressed concern about the brain drain epidemic in Mississippi, saying state leaders should turn their focus to keeping young Mississippians in the state.
