Born inFlorence, Mississippi, Reeves graduated fromFlorence High School in 1992 andMillsaps College in 1996. After receiving his degree in economics, he became aChartered Financial Analyst. He began work at Park South Corporation, leaving in 2000 to become a financialportfolio manager atTrustmark.

Reeves entered the race for Mississippi state treasurer after Democratic incumbent Marshall G. Bennett announced he would not run. In the Republicanprimaryrunoff, he defeated former Central District Transportation CommissionerWayne Burkes. In the general election, he defeated Democratic nominee Gary Anderson. He won reelection in 2007 and went on to becomelieutenant governor in 2012, holding the position until his inauguration as governor.

Reeves was chosen as his party's nominee in the2019 Mississippi gubernatorial election, defeating former state Supreme Court JusticeBill Waller Jr. and State RepresentativeRobert Foster. In the general election, he narrowly defeatedAttorney GeneralJim Hood. During his tenure, Reeves has changed thestate flag, removedCOVID-19 restrictions earlier than many of his fellow state governors, opposed vaccine requirements, and legalized medical cannabis. He was narrowly reelected in2023, defeatingBrandon Presley.

Early life and education

[edit]

Tate Reeves was born on June 5, 1974.[2] A native ofRankin County, Mississippi,[3] Reeves is the eldest son of Terry Reeves and Dianne Peeples.[4] Reeves's father founded a heating and air conditioning company in 1975 that became a multi-million-dollar business.[4] Reeves graduated fromFlorence High School inFlorence.[5] He then graduated fromMillsaps College inJackson[6] with a degree in economics.[7] He playedcollege basketball for two years before injuring his shoulder.[7]

At Millsaps College, Reeves was a member of theKappa Alpha Order, a controversialfraternity that has faced accusations of racism.[8] In 2019, yearbook photos surfaced showing members inblackface and Confederate uniforms, but it is unclear whether Reeves was involved.[9][6]

Early career

[edit]

After graduating from college in 1996, Reeves became aChartered Financial Analyst.[4] He worked at Park South Corporation, a subsidiary of the Deposit Guaranty National Bank,[4] which eventually merged intoAmSouth.[7] In 2000, Reeves moved toTrustmark National Bank, where he was a financialportfolio manager until 2003, when he resigned to run for state treasurer.[7]

Mississippi state treasurer (2004–2012)

[edit]

Reeves sought the post of Mississippi state treasurer in the 2003 election; it was anopen seat, as Democratic incumbent Marshall G. Bennett was retiring.[10] In the 2003 Republicanprimary election, Reeves faced former Central District Transportation CommissionerWayne Burkes ofBrandon andState Representative Andrew Ketchings ofNatchez.[11] In the Republicanprimary election, Reeves led with 49% of the vote, with Burkes in second place.[12] Because no candidate achieved a majority, Reeves and Burkes had arunoff election; Reeves defeated Burkes in the runoff, which had lowturnout.[13]

In the general election, Reeves defeatedDemocraticnominee Gary Anderson, the state director of finance and administration, 52% to 46%.[14] Anderson has substantially more experience than Reeves, but Reeves's campaign raised and spent substantially more money.[10] Observers also cited racial prejudice (Anderson isAfrican American) as another factor that may have contributed to Anderson's loss.[14][10] Reeves's father contributed $115,000 to his campaign, about one-fifth of its fundraising total.[4]

Reeves's election made him the first Republican to hold the position of Mississippi state treasurer,[15] as well as the youngest statewide elected official in the modern history of the state.[4]

In 2007, Reeves won reelection with about 60% of the vote, defeating Democratic candidate Shawn O'Hara.[15]

Lieutenant governor of Mississippi (2012–2020)

[edit]

In February 2011, Reeves entered the race for lieutenant governor. In the August Republican primary, he defeatedMississippi State Senatepresident pro temporeBilly Hewes ofGulfport,[16] 123,389 votes to 162,857.[17] In the November general election, he was elected lieutenant governor, succeedingPhil Bryant, who was elected to his first term asgovernor. Reeves ran without Democratic opposition; he received 80.35% of the vote; Reform Party candidate Tracella Lou O'Hara Hill received 19.65%.[18]

As lieutenant governor, Reeves was president of the state Senate, and he used his position to preventMedicaid expansion from receiving a floor vote,[19] and to block an increase in thegas tax to fund repairs to roads and to Mississippi's many structurally deficient bridges.[20]

Reeves won reelection as lieutenant governor on November 3, 2015, defeating three opponents, including state SenatorTimothy L. Johnson, a Republican-turned-Democrat.[21]

[edit]

Elections

[edit]

2019 election

[edit]

Reeves ran forgovernor of Mississippi in the2019 election.[22] He was the favorite to win the nomination.[23][24] He enjoyed substantial name recognition from his 16 years in statewide office, and had a significant fundraising advantage over his rivals for the Republican nomination, former state Supreme Court JusticeBill Waller Jr. andRobert Foster, a first-term member of thestate House.[24]

During the primary race, three former state Republican party chairs endorsed Waller (who was viewed as more pragmatist), while outgoing governorPhil Bryant, former governorHaley Barbour, andChris McDaniel endorsed Reeves (who was viewed as more conservative).[25] Reeves strongly opposedMedicaid expansion under theAffordable Care Act,[24][23] which he disparaged as the "Obamacare expansion."[26] This position contrasted with that of Waller and Foster, who supported a version of Medicaid expansion to benefit Mississippi's rural hospitals,[24] almost half of which were close to bankruptcy before the COVID-19 pandemic.[26] Reeves also opposed increasing the gas tax to fund road and bridge repairs, while Waller supported it.[23][24] Reeves said that "radical liberals" were attacking "Mississippi's culture and Mississippi's values."[27]

In the Republican primary, Reeves and Waller finished in first and second place, respectively. Because no candidate won a majority of the total vote, Reeves and Waller proceeded to a runoff election.[24] Reeves won the nomination in the runoff.[28]

Reeves at a 2019 Trump rally in Tupelo

During his 2019 campaign for governor, Reeves touted the support ofDonald Trump,[27] who carried the state in2016 and2020.[29] Reeves promised, "If I'm elected governor, I will work for President Trump."[26] Trump, his vice presidentMike Pence, and his sonDonald Trump Jr. all campaigned for Reeves in Mississippi in 2019.[29] At a rally inTupelo days before the 2019 election, the elder Trump promoted Reeves's candidacy while assailing theimpeachment inquiry against him over theTrump–Ukraine scandal.[30][31]

Reeves defeated theDemocratic nominee,state Attorney GeneralJim Hood, in the November general election.[32][33] Republicans won all eight statewide offices in 2019, a first in Mississippi history.[33] The election was Mississippi's first competitive election for governor since 2003.[33] Reeves received 459,396 votes to Hood's 414,368.[34] He took office on January 14, 2020.[35]

2023 election

[edit]

On November 7, 2023, Reeves defeated the Democratic nominee,Brandon Presley, in the2023 Mississippi gubernatorial election, winning reelection to a second term.[36][37] Presley conceded to Reeves after unofficial results showed him losing.[38]

Confederate iconography

[edit]

In June 2020, amid theGeorge Floyd protests, debate arose about whether to change theflag of Mississippi, which featuredConfederate insignia. Reeves initially said that the flag should be changed only by voter-approved referendum,[39][40] but later reversed himself, saying that if theMississippi legislature passed a bill to retire the flag without a referendum, he would sign it.[40] On June 28, 2020, the legislature voted to change the flag, 91 to 23 in theHouse and 37 to 14 in theSenate.[41] Reeves signed the legislation two days later, removing the last state flag to display a Confederate symbol.[42]

COVID-19

[edit]
Main article:COVID-19 pandemic in Mississippi

Amid the acceleration of theCOVID-19 pandemic, Reeves was accused[by whom?] of undermining efforts to contain thespread of the virus. In early 2020, he closed schools, declared a state of emergency, and told people to trust in the "power of prayer", but did little to combat COVID-19 transmission.[26] In March 2020, Reeves issued an order deeming most public places to be "essential services."[43][44] His order prompted substantial criticism, largely because it clashed with previously issued local orders and caused confusion as to whether the order overrode local leaders' decisions to order the closures of businesses and other public places.[43][44][26][45] Leaders of many of Mississippi's largest cities and counties criticized Reeves's order.[44] The mayor ofTupelo said that Reeves had engaged in an "abdication of leadership."[44] Days later, Reeves issued an amended order, clarifying that his previous order was not intended to interfere with local governments' decisions.[43]

Reeves implemented a "stay-at-home" order in April 2020, but allowed some retail businesses to reopen shortly thereafter.[46] In early May 2020, Mississippi had its largest spike of coronavirus deaths and cases up to that point.[46] It had another sharp uptick in COVID-19 cases and deaths in November 2020.[47] In December 2020, although Reeves urged the public to avoid large gatherings to prevent the further spread of the virus, his office invited legislators and other officials to at least three holiday parties at theGovernor's Mansion.[48][49]

Except for August 4 through September 30, 2020, Reeves did not issue a statewide mask mandate in the state, setting only county-by-county mandates in locations with rapid increases in infections.[47] Of the state's 82 counties, 16 were under a mask mandate in November 2020, when the mandates expired.[47] Effective April 30, 2021, Reeves ended COVID-19 restrictions (with the exception of the school mask mandate) through May 31, 2021. For the 2021–2022 school year, he did not reinstate the mask mandate.[50][51][52] At a political rally in July 2021, he called theCenters for Disease Control and Prevention's recommendations on indoor face coverings "foolish" and "harmful".[53]

When aCOVID-19 vaccine was made widely available, Reeves opposed vaccine requirements.[54][55] Mississippi had one of the lowest vaccination rates among U.S. states,[53][56] a fact Reeves downplayed.[56] After PresidentJoe Biden used his authority under the federalOccupational Safety and Health Act to require federal workers to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and to require all employers with more than 100 workers to require employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19 or receive weeklytesting, Reeves called the mandate "tyranny" and an "attack on hardworking Americans."[57][58] Biden responded by calling Reeves's remark "the worst kind of politics", referencing the 660,000 COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. up to that point and noting that "in Mississippi, children are required to bevaccinated against measles,mumps,rubella,chickenpox,hepatitis B,polio,tetanus and more."[59][60] Reeves joined a Republican-led lawsuit against Biden's plan.[61]

In August 2021, Reeves argued that Mississippi Christians were "less scared" because "when you believe ineternal life—when you believe that living on this earth is but a blip on the screen, then you don't have to be so scared of things."[62][63] That month, Mississippi had the nation's highest rate of COVID-19 cases and deaths per capita.[62]

During COVID-19, Mississippi suffered a shortage of hospital workers (in particular nurses). Reeves declined to call a special session of the legislature to allocate the state's $1.8 billion share of federal COVID-19 relief funds to address the crisis.[64]

Criminal justice and prisons

[edit]

In 2020, Reeves vetoed two criminal justice bills that would have expanded parole eligibility for Mississippi prisoners; one would have allowed nonviolent offenders to be considered for parole after serving 25% of their sentence, while the other would allow those convicted of violent crimes to be eligible for parole consideration after completing 50% of their sentence or 20 years, whichever comes first.[65] In 2021, Reeves signed into law a narrower bill that expanded parole eligibility.[66] He rejected calls to grant a pardon or commutation to Tameka Drummer, a Mississippi inmate serving alife without parole sentence for the possession of less than two ounces of marijuana; Drummer was sentenced in 2008 under the state'shabitual-offender law.[67][68]

As governor, Reeves faced significant problems with the state's prison system, especiallyMississippi State Penitentiary at Parchman—including widespread, deadly violence and unsanitary, dangerous conditions.[69] After nine prisoners died in one month at Parchman, Reeves acknowledged that Parchman's conditions were "terrible"; he ordered the closure of part of the complex, as well as other reforms.[69][70][71] Several hundred inmates were moved from Parchman's infamous "Unit 29" to theprivately operatedTallahatchie County Correctional Facility.[72][73]

Medical cannabis

[edit]

In 2020, Mississippi voters approved (by 70%) amedical marijuana initiative; the state supreme court subsequently invalidated the initiative, holding that it was improperly placed on the ballot.[74][75][76] Reeves opposed the initiative, but said he would honor "the will of the voters" who had overwhelmingly voted in favor of medical marijuana.[75] On February 2, 2022, he signed the bill into law, making Mississippi the 37th state to legalize medical cannabis.[77]

Taxation and budget

[edit]

As governor, Reeves pushed legislation to eliminate thestate's personal income tax.[78][79][80] The rating agencyFitch raised concerns in November 2021 that his taxation plans were fiscally unfeasible.[81]

Welfare funds scandal

[edit]
Main article:Mississippi welfare funds scandal

Reeves drew controversy for firing the attorney leading the state's welfare agency lawsuit.[82] His friendPaul Lacoste, a former football player who had become a well-known fitness trainer in Mississippi, was found to have secured a $1.4 million contract for a boot camp fitness program through state welfare funds.[82] NFL legendBrett Favre also lobbied Reeves for the construction of a volleyball stadium at the university his daughter attended, which was funded by state welfare money.[82]

Political positions

[edit]

Contraception

[edit]

In May 2022, Reeves repeatedly refused to deny that he would ban birth control in Mississippi when questioned by anchor Jake Tapper.[83] In particular, he refused to rule out banningIUDs, a form of birth control used by 1 in 7 women.[citation needed]

Early voting

[edit]

In November 2020, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Reeves said he would veto any bill that expandedmail-in voting or no-excuseearly voting.[84] Mississippi has some of the most restrictive laws in the U.S. for pre-Election Day voting.[84]

Education

[edit]

Reeves used his 2020 budget proposal to appeal to the conservative base. Echoing Trump, he proposed allocating $3 million to a "Patriotic Education Fund" and said that "across the country, young children have suffered from indoctrination in far-left socialist teachings".[85] Reeves's budget proposal recommended bonuses for schoolteachers in high-performing or improving schools, but largely ignored his 2019 campaign pledge to boost teacher pay in each year of his term.[85] He proposed teacher raises in the 2022 budget.[86]

Race

[edit]

In April 2021, Reeves said, "There is not systemic racism in America."[87] Earlier that month, he had declared April "Confederate Heritage Month" in Mississippi.[87] In March 2022, Reeves declared April "Confederate Heritage Month". He has done this every year of his term.[88]

2020 presidential election

[edit]

AfterJoe Biden defeated Trump in the2020 election, andTrump refused to concede, Reeves supported Trump-backed lawsuits to throw out the election results in several states Biden won, where Trump and his allies madefalse claims of fraud.[89] In March 2021, Reeves acknowledged that Biden is the president of the United States and was "duly elected" but repeatedly refused to acknowledge that Biden was "legitimately and lawfully elected" or that the 2020 election wasfree and fair.[90]

Personal life

[edit]

Reeves is married to Elee Reeves (née Williams); they have three daughters.[91][47] Reeves and his family attend Galloway Memorial United Methodist Church.[91]
