NATCHEZ — State Sen. Jack Gordon and Rep. Steve Holland, members of the Legislative Budget Committee, will be in Natchez Monday for a public forum.

The elected officials will be discussing what taxpayers can expect from the state’s budget due to the current economy.

Natchez Sen. Bob Dearing said he was excited about the forum.

“This is the first time Natchez has been able to get legislative budget members,” he said. “I look forward to welcoming my colleagues to Natchez and hope the public will attend this free event.”

The forum begins at 6 p.m. at Natchez Manor, 600 Franklin St.
