Appropriation; Personnel Board.
SB 2033 provides $5,352,002 in state funding for the Mississippi State Personnel Board to cover its operations during fiscal year 2026 (July 2025-June 2026). The bill specifically allocates $4,424,204 for "Personal Services" (employee salaries, wages, and benefits) to support 47 authorized positions, with strict rules preventing funds from being diverted to other categories or used for promotions. It requires the Board to track spending against this budget, ensures salaries comply with established minimums, and mandates that any new staffing must be approved by the Legislature with additional funding.
