Bobbie Gentry Day; declare June 3 as.

HB 581 designates June 3 as "Bobbie Gentry Day" in Mississippi to commemorate the Mississippi-born singer-songwriter Bobbie Gentry (born Roberta Lee Streeter), recognizing her 1967 hit "Ode to Billie Joe" and her Grammy wins as Best New Artist and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance in 1968. The bill specifies this day is for commemoration and observation only, not as a legal holiday. It follows similar non-holiday designations in Mississippi law, such as Elvis Presley Day and Hernando de Soto Day. The bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and did not become law.
