I didn’t get into this race because we thought it would be easy — I did it because Mississippi is always worth fighting for. I’ve reached out to Rep. Bennie Thompson to congratulate him on winning the primary, and to remind him to meet this moment with the urgency our communities deserve.

Polls are open in Mississippi until 7pm! Have you cast your vote for change yet?

It’s Election Day in Mississippi, and the people are ready for change!

Today is the day, Mississippi. It’s time to get out and VOTE!

Tomorrow's election day Mississippi. If we want things to change, we need to make that change with our votes. Evan Turnage is running for U.S Congress. His policies for healthcare, education, jobs, agriculture, affordability, and protecting voting rights are worth looking at. Please vote!

Tomorrow, let's vote for change and fight for the future.

Join us on Election Night after polls close to celebrate this unprecedented campaign! RSVP here: secure.actblue.com/donate/turna...

Hey Congressman Thompson, if you want to use the final days of this race defending the private prisons that donate to your campaign, be my guest.

Today is Evan’s 34th birthday! Let’s celebrate by helping send a new generation of leaders to Washington. Pitch in $34 or whatever you can to power this grassroots campaign today ➡️ secure.actblue.com/donate/tfc-w...

Give @evanturnage.bsky.social a follow!! youtu.be/Cjsb2V8Yiac?...

From Hazlehurst to Centreville, we’re meeting people where they are across the district! In every conversation it’s clear that Mississippians are ready to elect new leaders who will fight to actually get things done in Washington.

Come canvass with Team Turnage!

Good jobs, telehealth, and online classes all require fast, reliable internet. But across the Delta and in Black neighborhoods, families still struggle with slow speeds and service that cuts out when they need it most.

It’s been too long since Mississippi had a real choice about who represents us in Congress. People are fired up to vote for change across the Delta on March 10!

We just launched our second ad across the district! Repost if you agree it’s time for a new generation of leadership in Congress.

Why haven't we heard a word from Bennie Thompson about people dying in a private prison in our district? Because the same private prisons are bankrolling his campaign.

It was good meeting with folks in the Greenville Mall this weekend. They’re fired up and ready for change in the Delta!

Get involved in our campaign for the final sprint to our March 10 primary at evanturnage.com

Bennie Thompson was the only Democrat to vote against 15 days of early voting, same day voter registration, and other voting rights protections when he voted against the For the People Act. It’s time for new leadership.

I’m Evan Turnage, the author of the No Kings Act, and I’m running for Congress in Mississippi. There’s just weeks until the primary on March 10, and I need your help to keep building our campaign’s momentum. Share this post if you agree it’s time for a new generation of leadership in Washington!

At church, I hear the same story every Sunday: Grandmothers are watching their grandchildren grow up on FaceTime instead of in the pews beside them. My ‘Come Home Agenda’ will help people see a future in their hometown. See the plan to get it done: evanturnage.com/fair-deal

We’ve hit the road, and we’re speaking with folks across the Delta! Want to meet up in Clarksdale or Greenville? Check out more information on two events we’re hosting on Friday (2/20) and Saturday (2/21):

The same ol’ way is just not gonna work. Congressman Thompson has served as an elected official for the last 57 years straight. It’s time to pass the torch to the next generation of leadership.

NEW: We’re launching our first ad today, airing across the district on TV and online! Take a look and then share to spread the news.

Rev. Jesse Jackson lived his faith out loud, teaching us that prayer without action is empty and that justice is a sacred obligation. His passing marks the end of an era, but not the end of the work he called us to do.

My father Ellis Turnage ran for this congressional seat when it last opened up back in 1993. It’s uncanny that his reasons for running then sound a lot like my reasons in 2026.

In Jackson and across the country, it's time for a new generation of leadership — one that's accountable to the people, not corporations.

Once again, Pam Bondi shows that Donald Trump and his administration will always side with cheating corporations, not the people.

It’s time for a Fair Deal for Mississippi. Today I’m announcing a new agenda with real plans that put federal resources directly into our communities, creates good jobs here at home, and gives families the stability they need to stay, grow, and thrive.

Are you ready to vote for change on March 10?

ICE has been out of control for years, and Bennie Thompson has been running the same tired playbook.

TOMORROW: I hope I’ll see you at ‘Sippsi Good Tea this Wednesday evening, where I’ll be talking about economic development, healthcare, and equality – and making a special announcement!

Hinds County’s decision not to help administer our primary election voting is concerning. My team is investigating to make sure all eligible voters are still able to make their voices heard at the ballot box on March 10.

I was happy to be a sponsor of Women for Progress’s leadership weekend. WFP is a beacon in our community, and the fight for women’s rights is critical.

We tried their playbook, and it didn’t work. Now it’s time for a new generation of leaders in Congress.

It’s been a long time since voters in MS-02 have had a choice for Congress. No matter where you are in the district, Team Turnage is making it clear: we’re ready for new leadership in Washington! Want to show your support? Send us a message about getting your Turnage for Congress yard sign today!

My response to Donald Trump's racism, lies, and attempts to erase history:

Looking forward to some great conversations and a special announcement this Wednesday at our Tea Time with Turnage event on 2/11 from 5-7pm CT at 'Sippsi Good Tea! RSVPs and tickets are not required but are greatly appreciated: secure.actblue.com/donate/teati...

To the young people who walked out of class in protest: you inspire me. Keep on walking, keep on fighting, towards the future we deserve. #GenZRising #NoKings #ICEOUT #StudentPower #NoKingsInAmerica #AmericaTogether #PowerToThePeople #UCLAProtest #ChicagoProtest #StandTogether #VoiceOfThePeople

While Donald Trump tramples on the constitution, the Democrats in DC keep playing by the same old playbook that got us into this mess. The No Kings Act — which I wrote for Senate Democrats — would rein in the president, and it's time for new leaders who will actually fight to get it passed. #NoKings

Too many young people leave Mississippi for school or work and don’t come back, because they don’t see our state as a realistic option for their futures. We have to change that.

I’m proud to be running for Congress alongside other candidates across the country who aren’t waiting their turn. It’s time for change, now.

Politicians with an outdated playbook aren’t going to solve Mississippi’s problems. Learn more about my campaign to bring a new generation of leadership to Washington:

Just because you’ve been around the block for 30 years doesn’t mean you’re delivering results for the district. It’s time for generational change in Mississippi. www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

This #MLKDay I went to the Mississippi state capitol to support the Robert G. Clark, Jr. Voting Rights Act of Mississippi. The civil rights protections that a generation of civil rights leaders fought for are under attack, and we have to do everything we can to defend them.

I'm done playing nice with Democrats in Washington.

Bennie Thompson didn't even use his role as January 6 Committee Chair effectively to hold Trump accountable, much less do anything to back up the claim that he's the "sole person" fighting back.

You can’t say you have a “100% voting record” when you voted against the most important voting rights package in a generation. I’m running for Congress to make sure Mississippi has a real fighter in Washington.

I just got back from my morning run, and I'm fired up by all the support we've received in the past 24 hours to sprint to the primary on March 10th. Thank you to everyone who's shared our launch video, offered your support, or made a contribution to this campaign.

If Bennie Thompson’s 33 years in office had helped strengthen our district, there’d be no need for change, but we’ve remained the poorest district in the poorest state for my entire life. I’m done waiting. I’m running for Congress to actually fight for Mississippi: evanturnage.com
