Not much is on the legislature's public schedule this week, though Thursday could be a popcorn-riffic day.
Looks boring, though Thursday could be fun to watch.
On Thursday, June 16, Senate Health and Human Services meets at 1 p.m. in SHR1 to consider some executive nominations.
Also on Thursday, the Senate and House Committees of Reference on Health and Human Services will hold a joint meeting at 2 p.m.in order to receive a presentation from the Arizona Department of Health Services.
The fun part?
The membership of both the Senate committee and the Senate committee of reference include former allies and current rivals Kelly Townsend and Wendy Rogers.
Both are running for the same seat.
If both show up, things could get kind of "awkward."
Note: HHR refers to a hearing room in the House building; SHR refers to one in the Senate building.
Note2: Generally, I'll only specify bills that look to propagate propaganda. Other bills may be more conventionally bad (think: corrupt or other misuses of public monies and/or authority. My recommendation is that if an agenda covers an area of interest to you, read the entire agenda.
Note3: Each chamber's respective Rules Committee meets on Monday, the House's in HHR4 at 1 p.m. and the Senate's in Senate Caucus Room 1, also at 1 p.m. Both committees serve as rubber stamps for bills leadership wants to be advanced and gatekeepers for measures that leadership wants stopped.
Note4: Meeting start times may be listed, but are flexible. Before journeying to the Capitol or viewing the meeting online, verify the start time.
Note5: Watch for strikers, or strike everything amendments. Those involve inserting language into the entirety of a bill. Those can be introduced at any time and can make a previously harmless bill into a very bad one.
