At this week’s Keep America Beautiful Summit, I had the privilege of meeting with the team from Keep Mississippi Beautiful!

We share more than just a border with Mississippi - we share coastlines, waterways, culture, and a commitment to keeping our communities clean and beautiful for generations to come. It’s always great to collaborate with our gulf state neighbors to protect our valuable natural resources!
