* Appropriation, revenue, and local and private bills, and bills to restore suffrage are excluded from these deadlines. For purposes of the deadlines herein set forth,the term "revenue bills" shall include only those bills whose primary purpose is to increase or decrease taxes or to authorize the issuance of bonds or the borrowingof money. Bills which are primarily for regulatory purposes which have revenue provisions included shall not be considered as revenue bills for deadline purposes.The deletion from a bill of the features which made it a revenue bill shall render the bill a general bill for deadline purposes.

n An electric power association is a cooperative independently controlled and owned by the members it serves. A member is any customer who has an account with the electric power association. As a not-for-profit, an electric power association pays capital credits to members or lowers rates when it realizes a margin at the end of the year.n A board of directors, composed of members electedby the membership, governs an electric power association. e board establishes bylaws, policies andrates that reflect the individuality and needs of themembership. As local leaders, directors are responsiveto local needs.n Employees are local residents who share a personaland professional interest in the well-being of their community. ey embody the cooperative spirit ofcommunity involvement by participating in worthwhile causes.n Electric power associations promote energy-efficiency programs to help their members reduce energy costs.n Mississippi’s electric power associations have mutual-aid agreements to help each other restore service to members duringmajor power outages.ey may also obtainassistance from (oroffer it to) out-of-state electric cooperatives.

We have helped generations of electric powerassociation members make informed choices every time they flip aswitch.
We are member-owned electric cooperatives whose viability reflectsour commitment to providing valuable, money-saving services to ourmembers. So it’s only natural for electric power associations to work inthe interests of members.
Our broad mission of service also encompasses a range of communityservice activities. With a work force exceeding 2,900, electric powerassociation employees are respected business leaders and civic-mindedvolunteers in small towns and rural communities throughoutMississippi. We help grow communities through economic development, leadership and volunteerism.
We are more than an electric utility service. We are part of thefamily of electric cooperative members, and we work every day to make life better in our greatstate.
