Use tax revenue; deposit 10% into State Highway Fund for construction, reconstruction, repair or maintenance of highways.

SB 2564 would redirect 10% of Mississippi's state use tax revenue to the State Highway Fund, specifically for highway construction, reconstruction, repair, or maintenance. This amendment to Section 27-67-31 of Mississippi law would replace current allocations (such as portions going to schools or education funds) with this dedicated highway funding stream. The bill directly affects state highway infrastructure by ensuring a consistent revenue source for road maintenance and improvements. It does not change the tax rate or collection process but alters how existing use tax revenue is distributed. (Note: The bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and did not become law.)
