Click here for MPE's latest bill tracking spreadsheet which reflects action on those bills we are tracking as of noon today, March 6. Tuesday, March 4, was the deadline for committees to pass general bills that originated in the other chamber. Any general bill not passed by the other chamber’s committee(s) by Tuesday night’s deadline died on the calendar. As reflected on today’s bill tracking spreadsheet, numerous bills died Tuesday night. Next Wednesday, March 12, is the floor deadline for each chamber to act on general bills that originated in the other chamber and survived Tuesday night’s committee deadline.
