The current plan

It's Day 60 of the 60-day session, also known as Sine Die. But legislators don't seem likely to finish up budget negotiations today. So yes, we are preparing for special session. At this point we don't have any details about when it will be called or whether the Governor or the Legislature will call it.

Also at question is whether legislators will come to an agreement about this year's package of education reform bills, some related to the follow-up from last year's ed reform bill and some related to Race to the Top. Rep. Pat Sullivan is working overtime trying to make something happen and we're receiving dozens and dozens of petitions for action.

For now, legislators will continue running concurrences and we'll keep you posted when any breaking news comes our way.
