AI Summary
This bill amends Mississippi law to change the deadline for issuing procurement cards or digital solution credentials to teachers and necessary support personnel for purchasing classroom supplies using funds from the Education Enhancement Fund, moving the deadline from August 1st to July 15th each year. The Education Enhancement Fund is a state fund that supports various educational purposes, including classroom supplies, and procurement cards or digital solutions are tools used by educators to make these purchases efficiently.
