Appropriation; IHL - Mississippi State University - Cooperative Extension Service.

SB 2005 appropriates $33.37 million from general funds and $14.53 million from special sources (including $1.15 million from the Education Enhancement Fund) to support Mississippi State University's Cooperative Extension Service for fiscal year 2026. The bill requires the service to report on meeting specific performance targets across agriculture, 4-H, family education, and community development programs, while prohibiting the use of state funds to replace federal or external grants. It also mandates preference for Mississippi Industries for the Blind in purchasing decisions and requires compliance with budget reporting standards for future funding requests.
