Various obsolete commissions; repeal.
SB 2017 repeals numerous outdated commissions, councils, and advisory boards from Mississippi's legal code, including the Arkansas-Mississippi Bridge Commission and the Mississippi Commission on the Holocaust. The bill removes specific sections of the Mississippi Code that created these entities, which have been inactive for years. It also amends two code sections to remove references to the repealed entities, ensuring the law remains consistent. This procedural bill cleans up obsolete legal structures without creating new requirements or directly affecting the public.
