Legislative Update


The session has eight days to pass a budget and end on time. The budget conference committee members have been appointed and the organizational meeting between the Appropriations chairs, Senator Bradley and Representative Trujillo occurred last night. No conference committees have been notice, but there is only an hour notice required. However, the House goes in Session at 10:30 a.m. and the Senate at 10:00 a.m., and I anticipate long debates on the bills they will be considering. The earliest a conference budget committee may be noticed would be 3:30 this afternoon, but I think it will be later. Per the chairs comments last night, deliberation in the conference committees will go until 10:30 a.m. Friday morning and then any unresolved issues with go to Senator Bradley and Representative Trujillo. Sunday morning at 10:30 a.m. any unresolved issues will go to President Negron and Speaker Corcoran to resolved. The final draft of the proposed budget must be submitted to the Senators and Representatives 72 hours prior to a vote on both floors for passage of the 2018-2019 budget.
