Bill > HB1364

This bill amends existing Mississippi law to direct a portion of sales tax revenue towards the Mississippi Outdoor Stewardship Trust Fund, a fund established to support various outdoor recreation, conservation, and land acquisition projects. Specifically, starting September 15, 2026, $1,250,000 each month from sales tax revenue generated by businesses classified under the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code 451110 (which typically covers sporting goods stores) will be deposited into this trust fund. The bill also makes conforming changes to the section of law that governs the Mississippi Outdoor Stewardship Trust Fund, allowing for monies to be "otherwise made available" and "in any manner," which broadens how funds can be deposited into the trust. This legislation aims to provide dedicated funding for the preservation and improvement of Mississippi's natural resources and outdoor recreational opportunities.
