Welcome back, legislators! Is everyone assembled?

The ramp-up to Committee Assembly Days is over and the legislators are assembled, with a full two days of committee meetings underway.

Typically there is no floor action during this week. Rather, legislators use this time to touch base about issues coming up in the next session, look at the bills we passed last session and how they're being implemented, and manage other ongoing interim work.

After this morning's first round of meetings, legislators are now gathering for caucus. Whenever you manage to corral 63 House Democrats into one room, you know something exciting is going to happen.
