Another Busy Day in the House
Below is the proposed Special Order Calendar for bills to be voted on Thursday in the House of Representatives. For the most part it is still a non-controversial agenda but anything can happen when you have some bills that are long. With real estate, illegal immigration and some tedious recompilation of the code a potential slow down can occur with one stumble.
