JACKSON, Miss. (WJTV) – Governor Tate Reeves (R-Miss.) said he plans to call a special session to address the state’s budget for Fiscal Year 2026.

Now that we’ve reached an agreement on the budget, today I informed Lieutenant Governor Hosemann and Speaker White that I intend to call a special session for the middle of next week.

The proposed budget does not materially increase state spending, is fiscally conservative, and will help us to continue Mississippi’s historic economic momentum.

I’m proud of the work we’ve done to reach this agreement. I’d like to thank Mississippi’s legislative appropriators for working diligently throughout the budget negotiation process. I’m excited to get the special session completed and look forward to quickly passing the budget.

I will provide more updates next week.

Gov. Tate Reeves (R-Miss.)
