Suspend deadlines for futher consideration of Senate Bill 2753; revisions to the SAFER ACT.

Maddy summaryThis bill is a procedural measure that temporarily pauses the time limits for reviewing and passing Senate Bill 2753, which proposes the "SAFER ACT." The underlying act would require public buildings, restrooms, and student housing in Mississippi to designate spaces as exclusively male, exclusively female, or unisex. It also sets rules for how individuals enter these spaces and defines legal terms like "male," "female," and "sex." Because the bill died in committee, these proposed changes have not been enacted into law.

Suffrage bills; require the Rules Committee to establish factors for passage of.

Maddy summaryThis bill proposes a new rule for the Mississippi House of Representatives to standardize how committees evaluate bills that restore voting rights to people with criminal records. Under the proposed rule, any committee considering such a bill must publish a list of specific, objective criteria on the official state website to determine if the bill should move forward. The required criteria would verify that the individual was convicted of a disenfranchising crime and has either finished their sentence or has not been in prison for the last five years. If these conditions are met, the bill would proceed without further inquiry, aiming to make the restoration process more transparent and consistent.
