HB 1264 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

MHP, MBN and CTED officers within the Department of Public Safety; provide a salary increase of $6,000 to.

HB 1264 increases base salaries by $6,000 for all sworn officers in Mississippi's Highway Safety Patrol (MHP), Bureau of Narcotics (MBN), and Commercial Traffic Enforcement Division (CTED) within the Department of Public Safety. The bill revises the existing salary schedule to add $6,000 to the base pay for every rank category across all experience levels, such as raising Troopers' starting pay from $60,000 to $66,000. This applies to full-time officers serving in these three divisions, directly affecting their compensation without changing promotion structures or job classifications. The adjustment aligns with the current salary framework but provides a uniform $6,000 increase across all positions.
