MS HC55

Urges the City of New Orleans to transfer temporary control of Confederate artifacts and monuments not currently on public display to the cities of Gulfport and Biloxi, Mississippi, and Beauvoir - The Jefferson Davis Home and Library.

Designates Beauvoir in Biloxi as the official archival location for Confederate-era items, citing its historical significance as the home of Jefferson Davis.

Specifies that the transfer represents temporary guardianship only, not permanent ownership, and remains in effect until New Orleans decides to restore public access or Louisiana state officials mandate preservation within the state.

Requires the City of New Orleans to bear all costs associated with removal, placement, and upkeep of transferred items without state funding, appropriations, or grants from the Mississippi Department of Archives and History.

Declares it Mississippi Legislature policy to support preservation and public awareness of the state's Confederate history and the contributions of Mississippians during the Confederate era.
