Former auditor recalls his (authorized) government spending study

Former Auditor Steve Patterson joins Mississippi Today's Adam
Ganucheau, Bobby Harrison and Geoff Pender to discuss a
government waste study he conducted in the 1990s. Patterson draws
contrasts between his 1990s study, which was legally authorized
by the Legislature, and a highly scrutinized 2024 study from
current Auditor Shad White, who did not get legislative
authorization before spending $2 million.
