State agencies; notify Legislature of proposed rule adoption.
SB 2278 would require Mississippi state agencies to email all legislators about proposed new rules within one business day after filing the notice with the Secretary of State. Currently, agencies only need to publish notices in an administrative bulletin, but this bill adds direct electronic notification to lawmakers. The bill also updates procedures for agencies to notify the public about proposed rules, including maintaining mailing lists for public requests. It was introduced in 2026 but died in committee and never became law.
