SUMMARY: Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves announced that the state's unemployment rate hit a record low of 3% in March, equaling the state's previous lowest percentage. Reeves credited the economic growth to attracting significant private sector investments and creating thousands of jobs. Among these investments, a $10 billion project from Amazon Web Services is expected to generate 1,000 jobs. The state has also been recognized for its quality pre-kindergarten education and has attained all-time high graduation rates. After a consistent decline in unemployment throughout 2023, Mississippi managed to reach and maintain this record low early in 2024.
