General Fund; FY2026 appropriation to the City of Baldwin for repairs of a building used as a polling location.
SB 2981 appropriates $1,000,000 from the State General Fund to the City of Baldwin, Mississippi, to cover repair costs for a municipal building serving as a polling location during the 2025-2026 fiscal year. The bill directly affects Baldwin's local election infrastructure by funding necessary renovations to ensure the building meets voting requirements. Key provisions include a one-time state funding allocation for FY2026 (July 1, 2025-June 30, 2026) and payment procedures via state treasurer warrants. This is a straightforward funding measure with no policy changes beyond the specified allocation. The bill died in committee on February 26, 2025, and was never enacted.
