Mississippi Rep. Earle Banks, D-Jackson, asks a question at the state Capitol, Oct. 18, 2022, in Jackson, Miss. A federal judge sentenced Banks to two years of probation Monday, Nov. 27, 2023, months after the longtime lawmaker pleaded guilty to making a false statement on a tax return for failing to report more than $500,000 of income from the sale of real estate in 2018. Banks had already paid nearly $85,000 in restitution. His attorney said Banks intends to remain in the Legislature. (AP Photo/Rogelio V. Solis, File)
