Summary
The bill amends Jackson County’s local law so the 2% hotel and motel room tax will stay in force until July 1, 2030 instead of July 1, 2026. The tax revenue is earmarked for tourism promotion by the county board or the Mississippi Gulf Coast Regional Convention and Visitors Bureau. Extending the tax gives the county additional years to fund tourism‑related projects.
