HB 1233 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

MS Heroes Support Fund; authorize optional speeding fine for deposit.

HB 1233 creates the Mississippi Heroes Support Fund, funded by an optional $100 fine from first-time speeding violators (who can choose to pay this extra fee instead of the standard fine to dismiss their ticket). The fund provides annual payments to eligible full-time certified law enforcement officers in Mississippi who have completed at least one year of service and are in good standing with their agencies. To qualify, officers must work for an agency accredited by the Mississippi Law Enforcement Accreditation Commission by December 31, 2029. The fund also accepts donations and earns interest, and it is structured as a special account that does not expire or lapse into the general state fund.
