The Magnolia State will be the first state to ban neutrality agreements in the workplace and just the fourth to enact the right to a private ballot in unionization efforts.
With the signature of Governor Tate Reeves (R), Mississippi will become the first state in the U.S. to ban so-called neutrality agreements in the workplace.
A “neutrality agreement” is a contract between a union and an employer under which the employer agrees to support a union’s attempt to organize its workforce.

The 2026 Campspot Awards included two Mississippi sites: Gulfport Luxury RV Resort and Sun Retreats Horn Lake.
It seems like just yesterday we had ice storms across the state, yet now it’s time for spring break. If you haven’t yet planned a getaway, consider camping at one of the luxury RV resorts in the state. Two resorts in our state have recently received 2026 Campspot Awards for amenities, guest experiences, facilities, and more. Some may even call it “glamping,” because these places are nice.
