Appropriation; Alcorn County to purchase turnout gear for the Alcorn County Fire Department.
HB 1208 proposed a $400,000 state appropriation to Alcorn County's Board of Supervisors for the 2025-2026 fiscal year to cover the cost of turnout gear (protective firefighting uniforms) for the Alcorn County Fire Department. The bill would have provided state funds to assist the county with this specific equipment purchase, drawn from the State General Fund. However, the bill died in committee on February 26, 2025, and did not become law, meaning the funding was not authorized.
