There's some activity on the schedule this week. It seems to be of the "hatred of voters" genus.
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 spread 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, generally at 1 p.m. and the Senate's in Senate Caucus Room 1, generally 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 that replaces the entirety of a bill. Those can be introduced at any time and can make a previously harmless bill into a very bad one.
On Monday, 5/13, Tuesday, 5/14, and Wednesday, 5/15 - Nada. Note: The Joint Legislative Audit Committee was scheduled to meet on Wednesday, but that has been pulled from the schedule.
On Thursday, 5/16 -
Senate Elections meets at 10 a.m. in SHR1. One item on the agenda: a striker to HCR2056, working title of "elections." Text not available as yet, but with this bunch, it's reasonable to expect it to be fear-based propaganda that has nothing to do with reality.
[Edited on 5/14 to add ]
On Wednesday 5/15 -
House Ethics meets at 4 p.m.HHR4. On the agenda: they're scheduled to hear the complaint filed by some snowflakes against Democratic Reps De Los Santos and Ortiz over their criticisms of the snowflakes and the snowflakes' unquestioning support for the Civil War-era near total abortion ban.
The text of the striker to be heard by Senate Election on 5/16 is now available. It should be named "The We Hate Voting Act."
