HB 580 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

"Medal of Honor Trail"; designate portion of Interstate 22 and U.S. Highway 78 within the State of Mississippi as.

HB 580 proposes designating a specific segment of Interstate 22 in Mississippi (running through DeSoto, Marshall, Benton, Union, Pontotoc, Lee, and Itawamba Counties) and a portion of U.S. Highway 78 in Byhalia, DeSoto County, as the "Medal of Honor Trail." The bill requires the Mississippi Department of Transportation to install and maintain signs along this designated highway route. This is a ceremonial naming resolution with no substantive policy changes or direct impact on constituents beyond the symbolic recognition of veterans. The bill died in committee in March 2025 and was never enacted.
