SB 2055 Mississippi Senate · 2025 Regular Session

State holidays; designate days of general elections for statewide offices as.

SB 2055 designates U.S. presidential election days, general state election days, and U.S. Senate election days (when Mississippi's seats are on the ballot) as legal holidays in Mississippi, meaning state government offices would close on these dates. The bill directly affects state employees and public services, requiring closures on these specific election days starting in 2025. Key provisions add these election dates to Mississippi's existing list of legal holidays, replacing the previous practice of not having election days as holidays. The bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and was never enacted.
