Y'all Politics: MS04: Ezell launches first TV ad in bid for Congress

Apr 22, 2022

The Jackson County Sheriff is one of 6 challengers trying to unseat incumbent Congressman Steven Palazzo.

Jackson County Sheriff Mike Ezell’s campaign for Congress launched its first television ad today featuring his wife, Suzette, highlighting Ezell’s experience as a law enforcement officer, and noting that he is also a beekeeper.


Ezell is one of 6 Republican candidates challenging incumbent Congressman Steven Palazzo in Mississippi’s 4th Congressional District.


According to the latest FEC campaign finance filings, Ezell’s campaign raised over $92,000 in the first quarter of 2022 and has a cash on hand balance of nearly $204,000 heading down the stretch to the June 7th Republican Primary in South Mississippi.



In the ad, Suzette Ezell says, “My husband, Mike, is our Sheriff, and now he’s running for Congress. He’s been a law enforcement officer for 40 years. He’s also a beekeeper. Mike is fearless. As Sheriff, he cleaned up corruption, saved taxpayers millions of dollars, and he’ll do the same in Washington. After you’ve been shot at, the last thing you’re afraid of is a swarm of bees…or liberal politicians in Congress.”


Ezell has served as Jackson County Sheriff since 2014 when he was first elected in a special election and re-elected to the position in 2015, and again in 2019 as the first Sheriff in Jackson County to run unopposed.

RELEASE: Congressman Mike Ezell Addresses Unfair Treatment of President Trump by Colorado State Supreme Court

20 Dec, 2023
[Pascagoula, MS] - Congressman Mike Ezell, representing the great state of Mississippi, expresses deep concern over the recent decision by the Colorado State Supreme Court to remove President Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot. This decision, in Congressman Ezell's view, raises questions about the principles of democracy and the right of citizens to choose their representatives. In a statement released today, Congressman Ezell shared his thoughts on this matter, stating, "Colorado has taken President Trump off the ballot, and this is where democracy falls. It's time that we stand up and fight back. We can show that Mississippi has his back. We stand with Donald Trump over the woke left in Colorado." The decision to exclude a former president with a significant following from the electoral process raises concerns about the fairness and integrity of our democratic system. Congressman Ezell believes that every citizen, regardless of political affiliation, should have the opportunity to vote for the candidate of their choice. "The cornerstone of our democracy is the ability of citizens to freely express their political will through the electoral process. The decision in Colorado challenges this fundamental principle," said Congressman Ezell. For media inquiries or further information, please contact: Info@MikeEzell.MS
