Our final Legislative Update meeting will be held on March 14th at 12:00 PM Central by Zoom.
We are on the home stretch in the final days of the 2025 Legislative Session with just two more days to go after today. SB 154 (340B bill) sailed through the House of Representatives 65-5 on March 5th. Most of the vehicle bills were disposed of this past week. March 10th was one of the longer days of the Session as it was the last day for bills to pass both chambers.
Everything is contentious at this time of the Session. Next year's calendar selection came out of committee by one vote. The Joint Appropriations Committee is fighting over the placement of excess unclaimed property tax dollars into a trust fund.
These last two days will be devoted to finalizing the budget, determining which topics may be recommended for summer study, sorting out the remaining tax bills, and acting on Conference Committee reports.
Following are the bills we are tracking: (Bills with a strikethrough have been defeated or modified in some manner.)
