HB 1554 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

MS Nonprofit Corporation Act; bring forward.

HB 1554 is a procedural bill that reorganizes existing sections of Mississippi's Nonprofit Corporation Act (currently codified as sections 79-11-101 through 79-11-159, 79-11-171 through 79-11-373, and 79-11-381 through 79-11-407) into a new sequence for clarity. It does not change any substantive rules or fees for nonprofits but updates the code structure to make the act easier to navigate. This reorganization affects all nonprofits and foreign corporations operating under Mississippi's nonprofit laws, as they will now reference the updated section numbering for filings and compliance. The bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and had no effect on current nonprofit operations.
