Ind. Gov't. - Senator Sue Errington writes weekly column
"Week in Review at the Indiana General Assembly" is the title of a weekly column by Senator Sue Errington, published in the Muncie Free Press. Here is how this week's column begins:
The filing deadline for the introduction of bills this session has now passed. The Senate has begun its review of 583 bills introduced by its members and the House is considering 837 proposals. Committee activities have gained momentum in the Senate and many bills have begun to make their way to the chamber floor for consideration by the full body. This brief summary highlights some of the legislative action taken last week.The ILB thought it had posted last week's column, but apparently not, so here is the link. It began:
Senate and House committees are now underway as legislators begin to work their initiatives through the first step of the process. All standing committees hold public hearings so legislators can carefully review each bill and hear public testimony before advancing legislation to the full House or Senate chamber for further consideration. This brief summary discusses several bills that have been introduced and highlights of other legislative activities that took place last week.Readers will recall that Sue Errington, Democratic Senator representing Muncie, was mugged in a Northside Indianapolis CVS parking lot at 119 W. 56th Street. But, as shown by her columns, this unfortunate and no doubt very frightening event does not seem to have slowed her down.
