It’s a big day today – Election Day in Mississippi. Next week is Veterans Day. We’ve got a patriotic show planned. Today’s show is dedicated to our veterans — the men and women who have served and sacrificed to defend our country. We’ll look at how government shutdowns impact veterans’ pay and benefits, explore the laws governing National Guard deployments, and discuss the real-world issues facing service members today. Our guest Ira Rushing from Tully Rinckey PLLC will help us understand. In Legal Terms, the show about you and your rights hosted by attorney Adam Kilgore.
