AI Summary

This bill removes a provision that would have caused a statute governing premium payments for the State and School Employees Life and Health Insurance Plan to expire, or "stand repealed," on July 1, 2026. By deleting this repealer, the bill ensures that the existing laws regarding how premiums and contributions are collected for this insurance plan, which covers state and school employees, will continue to be in effect indefinitely. The statute in question, Section 25-15-15 of the Mississippi Code of 1972, outlines the responsibilities of the state, school districts, and other public entities in funding health and life insurance for their employees, including details on cost-sharing and how premiums are managed.
