Dedeaux is a graduate of Mississippi College (BS Political Science). He is married to the former Robin Freret of Saucier who is an elementary math teacher. They have four children Kadence, Landon, Wyatt, and Avery and are members of Steep Hollow Baptist Church.

Dedeaux has issued the following statement. .Mississippi should be very proud of the fact that we abide by our legal obligation to the taxpayers to have a balanced budget. It is always a struggle to determine what should be the priorities within the scope of our limited resources. I have always championed the causes which are important to working families that live in my district like quality education, jobs, access to affordable health care and drug free communities.

Economic development means combining a well trained work force that can easily adapt to emerging job opportunities with an aggressive and cooperative approach to attracting expanding industries to south Mississippi. I recognize and support the responsive role that community colleges play in this team effort.

Now more than ever we need to have experience working to defend the interests of South Mississippi. I am humbled that the people of my district have repeatedly trusted me with this responsibility and am proud to offer yet again that experience and energy in continued service to my constituents..

Dedeaux is the Democratic nominee and will face a Republican challenger in November.
