AI Summary

This concurrent resolution extends the 2025 Regular Session of the Mississippi Legislature by 30 days beyond the standard 90-calendar-day session, as allowed by the state constitution. The resolution suspends certain legislative deadlines to permit further consideration and filing of conference reports for specific appropriation bills and selected House and Senate bills, including bills related to the state budget for fiscal year 2026 and a bill addressing the Public Employees' Retirement System. The resolution sets the date of sine die adjournment (the final day of the legislative session) as Friday, April 11, 2025, at 11:59 p.m. CDT, and includes a provision that the resolution will be nullified if it is not adopted by the Senate by 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, April 2, 2025. The purpose appears to be providing additional time for lawmakers to complete critical legislative work, particularly around budgetary and retirement system matters, while establishing a clear end date for the legislative session.
