How One Senator's Pink Outfit is Making a Difference in the Fight Against Cancer

Mississippi Senator Jeremy England has raised thousands of dollars in support of the American Cancer Society after a photo of the lawmakers in a pink outfit went viral on social media.

The photo — which shows the senator with pink-colored hair dressed in a pink jumpsuit and skirt — resurfaced last week after he announced his support for incumbent Lieutenant Governor Delbert Hosemann’s campaign in a television advertisement.

England received a text message from Senator Melanie Sojourner containing the picture shortly after the advertisement’s release, to which he replied with an explanation that the outfit was part of a fundraising competition he held in his neighborhood on Halloween in 2020.

“That was a great Halloween. That is the money I raised for breast cancer in my neighborhood walking around that night,” England stated in a screenshot of the text conversation. “Volunteering and working hard for great causes – it’s what I do!”

According to England, approximately $300 was collected from individuals located throughout his neighborhood that night, with the photo’s resurfacing inspiring the legislator to begin raising money for breast cancer awareness once again.

“I’ve been able to raise a lot of money now since this picture came out for breast cancer awareness and the reason I have been able to do it is because people are tired of these dirty politics,” England explained during an interview on The Gallo Show.
