The 94^th General Assembly has wrapped up most of their work for the Regular Session. As week 12 ended today, the Legislators cleared both agendas and sent their last piece of legislation to the Governor's desk. Pursuant to HCR1007, the General Assembly may reconvene no later than May 1, 2023 to override any gubernatorial vetoes, correct any oversights or errors, and finalize their recommendations for ballot initiatives.

Week 11 of the 94^th General Assembly has wrapped up, and the Legislators have returned from Spring Break re-energized. It clearly shows based on how fast the pace has been around the Capitol this week.

Week 10 of the 94^th General Assembly has wrapped up, and the Legislators have returned home for Spring Break.

Week 9 of the 94^th General Assembly has ended. This past week was quite lively and saw substantial action from both the Governor and the public.
