SB 2036 Mississippi Senate · 2025 First Extraordinary Session

Appropriation; Revenue, Department of.

SB 2036 is an appropriations bill that allocates $56.99 million from general funds and $25.85 million from special funds for the Mississippi Department of Revenue (DOR) during fiscal year 2026. It covers DOR operations - including the Homestead Exemption Division, Motor Vehicle Comptroller, Alcohol Beverage Control, and Enforcement Division - and reimburses counties and school districts for tax losses due to homestead exemptions. The bill restricts $44.92 million of the total to "Personal Services" (salaries, wages, and benefits), requiring strict adherence to headcount limits and salary caps set by the State Personnel Board. This funding ensures DOR can maintain essential services while preventing overspending on personnel costs.
