Legislative special session through Mar. 2, 2018

Little more happened this week than last. Because of amendments, HB 23, which would temporarily increase the sales tax for three years, by Rep. Stephen Dwight adds to the list of good bills. Also, SB 8 by Sen. Rick Ward would be like HB 29.

THIS WEEK FOR THE GOOD: HB 2 with minor amendment passed House committee and the House; HB 3 with major amendment passed House committee and passed the House; HB 12 with minor amendment passed the House; HB 29 with minor amendment passed the House; SB 8 with minor amendment passed Senate committee.

THIS WEEK FOR THE BAD: HB 27 passed the House.
