General Fund; FY2026 appropriation for DFA for support at the 211 Mississippi helpline.
SB 2945 proposed appropriating $500,000 from Mississippi's General Fund for Fiscal Year 2026 to fund the 211 Mississippi helpline, operated by United Way of the Capital Area, Inc. The helpline connects Mississippi residents with local health and human services based on their needs and location. This bill, which died in committee on February 26, 2025, would have provided direct funding for an existing statewide service but did not become law. It was a procedural funding measure, not a new policy.
