General Fund; FY2026 appropriation to MDA for the West Central Mississippi Incubator Grant Program.
SB 2136 would have allocated $500,000 from Mississippi's General Fund to the Mississippi Development Authority (MDA) for the West Central Mississippi Incubator Grant Program during fiscal year 2026 (July 2025-June 2026). The bill provided specific funding to support business incubator services in West Central Mississippi, directly affecting the MDA and local entrepreneurs participating in the grant program. The bill died in committee on February 26, 2025, and was never enacted into law. This was a procedural funding measure, not a policy change affecting broader legislation.
