Department of Public Safety; revise officers' pay scale.
SB 2336 increases salaries for all sworn officers in the Mississippi Highway Safety Patrol and Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics by $6,000 annually. The bill amends the state's pay scale to add this fixed amount to every existing salary bracket across all ranks and experience levels, effective July 1, 2025. This change directly affects over 1,000 officers currently employed in these divisions, adjusting their base pay without creating new positions or altering promotion criteria. The increase applies uniformly to all ranks, from Troopers to Colonels, as specified in the updated salary schedule.
