As of right now, there's only one striker being offered, but the text of that striker isn't available as yet. And whether that total remains the same this week or committee agendas are revised to accommodate more, I expect more will be offered next week.
Read bills carefully - bills that look (relatively) harmless may contain a VERY bad provision in them that may be easy to miss.
Schedules can, and frequently do, change at any moment when the legislature is in session. So pay attention.
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 b, ad (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 become a very bad one.
On Monday, 3/9

The chambers' respective Rules committees, House and Senate, will meet to consider proposals approved by other committees.
Senate Federalism meets at 1:30 p.m. in SHR2. On the agenda: one bill.

House Health & Human Services meets at 2 p.m. in HHR4. On the agenda: 11 bills. Includes SB1115, proposing to forbid AHCCCS from allowing any of its employees to work remotely. The fiscal note attached to this one predicts an ongoing cost to taxpayers of $4.1 to $8.4 million per year and a one-time cost of up to $5.7 million.
House Public Safety & Law Enforcement meets at 2 p.m. in HHR1. On the agenda: three bills. Includes a striker that will be offered by a Democrat to SB1055. Considering that the striker will be offered by a D and is good...and the underlying bill is a "fear the other" anti-immigrant measure, I don't expect the striker to pass.
