Mississippi Employment Protection Act; amend to restrict incentives for employers who use H-1B visa labor over US citizens.

Summary

The bill would let Mississippi agencies create rules that limit state benefits for companies that prefer H‑1B visa workers instead of U.S. citizens. It requires all employers to verify new hires through the federal E‑Verify system and obligates third‑party staffing firms to register with the state before placing workers. Employers that violate the rules could lose state contracts or business licenses.
