Health Care Trust Fund; reestablish and transfer $1 billion into.

Summary

The bill reenacts the law that created the Health Care Trust Fund, requires all future tobacco settlement payments to be deposited there, and makes the fund permanently untouchable except as the law allows. It also directs the state treasurer and fiscal officer to move $1 billion from the Capital Expense Fund to serve as new principal for the trust. The goal is to restore a dedicated source of money for health‑care spending in Mississippi.
