Bonds; authorize issuance of general obligation bonds for repair and renovation of Oakes African American Cultural Center.
SB 2129 would have authorized Mississippi to issue state bonds specifically to fund repairs and renovations at the Oakes African American Cultural Center in Yazoo City. The bill outlined the process for issuing these bonds, backed by the state's full credit, with proceeds dedicated solely to the center's renovation costs. The bill died in committee in February 2025 and did not become law.
