State agencies; authorize to enter into intergovernmental support agreeements with military branches.

Summary

HB 612 lets any Mississippi state agency or its subdivisions sign intergovernmental support agreements with U.S. military branches for services at installations in the state. It also amends the nursing licensure statute so that Army combat medics, Navy corpsmen, Air Force medical specialists and Coast Guard health‑services technicians who have completed required training and two years of direct patient‑care experience can apply to take the practical nurse exam. The changes are intended to improve state‑military cooperation and expand licensure pathways for veterans.
