Public Safety: Mississippi is rolling out updated active-shooter training for schools using ALERRT, emphasizing faster care for wounded victims. Civil Liberties: In a Mississippi case over cell-tower “tower dump” warrants, Judge Carlton W. Reeves ruled the practice is per se unconstitutional under the Fourth Amendment. Education Politics: Sonja Shaw, a California school-board president, is using anger over COVID-era rules to launch a bid for state superintendent. Economic Development: The Lumber Manufactory is establishing a $15 million sawmill operation in New Albany, expected to create 50+ jobs. Local Government: Biloxi’s planning commission set a Sept. 3 public hearing on zoning and master-plan changes. Transportation Safety: Amtrak’s Gulf Coast “Mardi Gras” route is seeing strong ridership growth while leaders confront deadly rail-crossing crashes.
