The bill’s author, State Rep. Shanda Yates, described the bill as a “great piece of legislation.” She said landlords not paying utility bills when part of a person’s rent is an issue across the Magnolia State.
Legislation to ensure utilities are paid that are included in a person’s rent or lease has cleared its final hurdle in the Mississippi Legislature and is now on its way to the governor’s desk.
