Mississippi agencies approved for layoffs after budget cuts

The Mississippi State Personnel Board on Thursday approved plans for the Department of Mental Health to lay off 125 workers at four facilities, part of an overall plan by the agency to trim employment by 650.

The Personnel Board also approved plans for the Public Service Commission to lay off three employees.
