Capitol Police; authorize to create and employ a part-time law enforcement reserve unit.

HB 1053 would authorize Mississippi's Capitol Police to create and employ a part-time reserve law enforcement unit to assist with security duties in the Capitol Complex Improvement District. The bill amends existing law (Section 45-1-19) to allow the Capitol Police Chief or Public Safety Commissioner to hire part-time officers for this purpose. This is a procedural change to expand staffing options within the Capitol Complex, without altering security policies or responsibilities. The bill did not advance beyond committee.
