State employee salaries; direct State Personnel Board to implement across-the-board increase.

SB 2469 would require Mississippi's State Personnel Board to implement a 6% annual salary increase for all full-time state employees funded by the General Fund, effective July 1, 2026, with part-time employees receiving a proportional share. The bill directs the Board to amend the variable compensation plan to reflect this increase and brings forward related sections of state law regarding annual reporting on compensation. This policy change directly affects state employees whose salaries are paid from the General Fund, not private or federal funds. The bill was referred to the Appropriations committee but died in committee on February 3, 2026, and has not become law.
