Mississippi Bullion Depository; establish in State Treasury.

SB 2082 proposed establishing the Mississippi Bullion Depository within the State Treasury to store precious metals like gold and silver. The bill would create a separate system for deposits (not counted as general state funds), requiring specific authentication standards, account management rules, and licensed depository agents to handle transactions. It included provisions for account holders to use debit cards, transfer balances, and receive annual reports, while prohibiting certain payments and defining agent responsibilities. The bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and was never enacted into law.
