Legislature; extend 2026 Regular Session and set date of sine die adjournment.
This bill extends the 2026 Regular Session of the Mississippi Legislature by 30 days beyond the standard 90-day limit. It sets the session to reconvene on April 15, 2026, unless the Speaker of the House and Lieutenant Governor decide it is unnecessary to do so. The resolution also establishes that the legislative session will officially end at 11:59 p.m. on that same date. This procedural measure affects the legislative calendar and determines when lawmakers can continue their work for the year.
