February 26, 2009: Legislative Report #24

Introduced Bills. Any End in Sight?

Bill number 1129 introduced as part of the legislature business today. From my February 3, 2009, introduced bills report our leaders have managed to add another 678 bills in three weeks, making 1129 bills to date for enactment. State employees at the capital expect up to 1500 bills before the legal bill introduction deadline. Minnesota has a budget to balance not add billions in taxing commitments and additional legal encumbrances for Minnesotans.
