SNAP replacement benefits available to residents impacted by severe weather
SUMMARY: The Mississippi Department of Human Services has announced that Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients who lost power due to recent storms can apply for replacement benefits. SNAP households impacted by storm damage can apply to receive up to the amount of their loss, but not exceeding their monthly benefit limit. If the power outage is directly caused by a weather event and lasts at least six hours, a replacement can be allowed. Households must report the disaster within 10 days of the event to their local MDHS office to request a replacement of SNAP benefits.

SUMMARY: Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves signed a bill into law to criminalize the manufacture, sale, and possession of machine gun conversion devices, such as “Glock switches.” These devices convert semi-automatic firearms into fully automatic ones. House Bill 903, authored by Rep. Kevin Felsher, carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison and a $3,000 fine for violations. Felsher highlighted the need for state-level action, as current laws only address federal offenses. The law was celebrated by Moms Demand Action for enhancing public safety. Mississippi is the 16th state to enact such legislation.
