SESSION MOVES ALONG
The final day for bills to be considered in their house of origin is Feb. 14, according to the session calendar. As indicated on the Priority Bills List, a number of bills have not survived cutoffs so far. More will likely to fall off the list as they fail to pass through their original house. Committees in the “opposite house” must consider bills passed over from the other house by Feb. 24 (fiscal transportation bills by Feb. 27). The final scheduled day of the 2006 session is March 9, a date likely to be achieved this year, barring any unforeseen issues or challenges. Please refer to the Priority Bills List for indications of bills and issues that still need attention.
