Sen. Deery Shares Update
| The Indiana General Assembly reached its halftime point for session last week, which means bills must have passed out of their original chamber to continue through the legislative process. This year, 156 of the 521 introduced Senate bills passed out of the Senate and moved on to the House of Representatives. Nearly half of the Senate bills passed with unanimous support and more than 90% passed with bipartisan support. On Monday, March 3, the Senate will reconvene and begin considering the 178 bills approved by the House of Representatives, including the state’s next two-year budget. As always, I encourage you to reach out to me with any questions or comments you may have.
