Legislators, working with an unprecedented amount of money thanks to record state tax collections and $1.8 billion in federal coronavirus-relief funds, are slated to return to the state Capitol Monday morning with hopes of finalizing a state budget.
by Bobby Harrison, Mississippi Today April 1, 2022 House Speaker Philip Gunn said the goal is to complete the task and end the 2022 legislative session by Tuesday. Legislators were scheduled to complete the budgeting process early last week, but twice have had to extend the session to complete the process. “We have a few little details to take care of” to finalize a budget agreement, said Senate Appropriations Chair Briggs Hopson, R-Vicksburg.
