SUMMARY: The AWS project, a 10-billion-dollar investment, will bring a minimum of 1,000 high-paying jobs to the state, exceeding the annual average wage by 125%. This project reflects promise and progress for the state, achieved through the vision of business owners and politicians, understanding and addressing areas of improvement, and bipartisan efforts from both private and political sectors. The collaboration between Entergy, the Greater Jackson Chamber Partnership, and others, as well as state and local officials, set a new course for Mississippi, showing that great things can happen when politics are set aside for the betterment of the future.
