InfoAfter serving 24 years in the Mississippi Legislature, Dick Hall was appointed Central District Transportation Commissioner by Gov. Kirk Fordice in 1999 to fill the unexpired term of a former commissioner. Hall was elected later that year to his first full term as Commissioner and has been reelected to two subsequent terms.

As Commissioner of the Central District, Hall’s constituency includes a population of almost one million people who reside in 22 counties.

Hall’s experience in the Mississippi Legislature was extremely broad-based serving three terms as a Representative and three terms as a Senator. In both the House and the Senate, Hall chaired the Environment Committees of each chamber, respectively. Other chairmanships included the Senate Public Health and Welfare Committee and the Senate Appropriations Committee — the first Republican to occupy this position in over 100 years. He also served as president of the Mississippi Republican-Elected Officials Association and as state chairman of the United Republican Fund. Other honors have included being the first recipient of the Hugh L. White Free Enterprise Award and Conservation Legislator of the Year.

An elder and former deacon in the Presbyterian church, Hall and his wife, Jennifer, live in the Brandon area.
