The Senate is back in, with nine pieces of legislation on its docket; first up are the three bills that came from JFAC and just passed the House. Also pending are Senate ethics rule changes; the teacher salary bill; the youth challenge bill; and tax cuts. Meanwhile, the House has come back into session and is preparing to adjourn sine die, which means "without a day" - for the session.
