The House will convene today at 1pm and with a lot of committee meetings scheduled around 2pm or upon adjournment - it may be a quick day today.
It is rumored that Rep. Butler's Health subcommittee will take public comment on DHR's budget next week. We understand that they will be taking comment tomorrow on Department of Labor's budget. See our calendar for more details.
The Senate's Education and Youth has cancelled their standing meeting for Tuesday to instead hold a Joint Committee meeting today with the House. This meeting will be at CLOB in Room 606. Sen Weber, the chair of this committee, is trying to set up a replacement meeting for this Thursday, probably around 3pm in CLOB 307 where public comment on SB10 (School vouchers for children with disabilities) might be taken. This meeting has not been confirmed yet, but expect public comment to happen quickly for this bill.
Senator Shafer posted on this blog yesterday that he believes that the Senate will meet every day for the next two weeks - reaching February 2nd as the 14th legislative day.
