Extra Credit Assignment (60 points)

PH 528

Introduction: The Mississippi State Legislature was in session in 2024, and the legislative session moved quite quickly, with several bills introduced. These bills were then assigned to committees and are now at various stages- some are waiting to be debated and voted on in the chamber they were introduced, and others have been already been passed in one chamber and sent to the other chamber for a vote.


Directions:

1. Review the bills that were assigned to either the
Senate Public Health and Welfare Committee (
https://billstatus.ls.state.ms.us/2025/pdf/senate_cmtes/ph.xml)

2. or the
House Public Health and Human Services Committee (
https://billstatus.ls.state.ms.us/2025/pdf/house_cmtes/ph.xml).

3. Select a bill that interests you and review the full text of the bill as well as the history of actions (where it is in the legislative process).

The selected bill must be different from the bill you chose for your first assignment in this course. Selecting the same bill seen in your previous assignment will result in a zero grade.

4. Write a letter to your state (not federal) representative or senator (whoever is going to vote on the bill next) either in support of or in opposition to the bill. You can find your legislators
here. You may use Oxford, MS as your location if you are not from Mississippi.
