The Mississippi Department of Public Safety announced that all offices, including Driver Service Bureaus across the state, will be closed on Monday, January 19, in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. The department, which oversees public safety and licensing services, recognizes the importance of honoring Dr. King’s legacy through this annual holiday.
Many government agencies and offices across Mississippi and the nation observe Martin Luther King Jr. Day as a day of remembrance and reflection on the civil rights leader’s contributions to social justice and equality. The department expressed gratitude to employees who will work through the holiday to ensure safety and continued service to residents.
Offices are expected to reopen on Tuesday, January 20. The department encourages residents to plan accordingly for any driver licensing or other services. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
