Bill Update for Today


This week will finish committee meetings. The most discussion is around the bills being formulated in response to student safety on school campuses and gun policies.

There has been no conferees for budget discussion named nor has there been a budget conference schedule announce. This is due in part to the expenditures associated with hardening the schools and expanded mental health resources for prek-12. Additionally there has been a reduction  to the $167 million in the projected money available which has something to do with the new federal corporate tax laws.(Sorry cannot explain that.)
