May 2 is the deadline for policy committees in the State Legislature to hear all bills with a fiscal impact – meaning Legislators will have just two weeks to hear hundreds of the most substantive and controversial measures of the year when they return from Spring Recess on April 21. This is the peak of the State Legislative Session, before any of the thousands of bills introduced this winter have failed passage and as stakeholders wrestle over amendments that could spell success or failure for their cause. Join the nearly 300 combined supporters of CSDA’s sponsored bills that recently cleared their first hurdle and get up to speed on the numerous costly CSDA-opposed bills on the docket in the coming days.
