HB 1470 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Corrections omnibus act; create.

HB 1470, titled the "Corrections omnibus act," is a procedural bill that does not enact new policy but instead compiles and references multiple existing Mississippi correctional laws for potential future amendment. It lists 38 specific sections of the Mississippi Code (including parole eligibility, probation rules, inmate case plans, and facility fees) to be reviewed by the legislature. The bill passed the House in February 2025 but died in a Senate committee in March 2025 without advancing further. It directly affects the process for reviewing correctional statutes but does not change current laws or impact individuals. This bill serves solely as a procedural step to organize existing correctional code sections for possible future legislative action.

What changed between versions

As Introduced → Committee Substitute · 3 edits
MINOR
The bill was reformatted from 'As Introduced' to 'Committee Substitute' version, with the substantive text remaining identical. The changes are primarily cosmetic, including reorganization of the header information, removal of line numbers, and addition of standard legislative enactment language. No substantive policy changes were made to the actual provisions of the Corrections Omnibus Act.
TECHNICAL

Header information was reorganized to include 'Committee Substitute' designation and updated session details, removing the original 'As Introduced' formatting and line numbers.

Standard legislative enactment language ('BE IT ENACTED') was added at the beginning of the substantive text, which was missing in the original version.

Page numbers and internal tracking codes (HR26/R1738) that appeared in the middle of the text were removed during the formatting changes.
