Maximum compensation for certain public officers and employees; bring forward code section concerning.
This bill (SB 2671) is procedural - it moves Section 25-3-39 of the Mississippi Code to a new location in the legal code without changing its content. The existing section sets a salary cap of 125% of the Governor’s salary for most state executive branch employees, with specific exemptions (e.g., academic staff, licensed physicians, certain mental health professionals, and the Child Protection Services Commissioner). It also prohibits supplemental funding from non-state sources for most positions and outlines rules for salary waivers and funding transparency. The bill does not alter the policy rules but reorganizes where they appear in the state code.
