Mississippi SB2577 mandates state agencies to submit budget requests within 30 days or face budget cuts.

Mississippi SB2577 requires state agencies to submit budget requests to the Legislative Budget Office within 30 days. If an agency fails to do so, the director must contract with a third party to prepare a budget request that is 3% lower than the current budget. The agency must pay the contractor within 45 days, or the Department of Finance and Administration will withhold the agency's fiscal year appropriation until payment is made. The Joint Legislative Budget Committee cannot recommend a budget higher than the reduced amount.
