Issue 13 - April 8, 2016

Legislative Overview

Today is the 89th day of session. The majority of activity was on the floor this week, as only a few committees heard executive nominations or had presentations. The chambers are processing a moderate amount of bills, as the governor announced he wants to see the budget develop before he signs any more legislation. Very little activity occurred on bills of municipal interest.

Reports indicate that there is some budget activity; leadership is meeting with small groups of their membership but few details have emerged. There were two documents available through the media that demonstrate the Senate and the House are about $18 million apart in spending, with the House having the higher number, but the documents do not contain much detail. We will keep you apprised as the budget develops.

To date 106 bills have passed, with 105 signed, and one vetoed, the cursive writing mandate.
