The Senate has unanimously passed HB 264, the comprehensive aquifer management plan legislation. Senators also passed various bills on their calendar, but skipped over a slew of appropriation bills, moving them to the bottom of the calendar, and passed over HB 262, the controversial legislation to trim teacher pay as part of education budget cuts. The Senate is now recessing until 2 p.m., at which time it’ll suspend rules and take up the non-appropriation bills now on its second reading calendar, plus two concurrent resolutions, including one about cystic fibrosis treatment through the state Department of Health & Welfare. Senators also likely will caucus this afternoon.
