SUMMARY: Senate Appropriations Chair Briggs Hopson announced plans to introduce a bill to counter the House’s proposed “Build Up Mississippi Act,” which aims to cut taxes by $1 billion, including phasing out the income tax over a decade and reducing grocery taxes. The House passed the bill with a strong bipartisan vote of 88-24.
