Yesterday, the Senate overturned the Governor's veto on SB 201/RTC5. We just need a vote in the Assembly and that bill will become law!
All of the energy bills have fallen into place, but Debbie Smith's attempt to change the STAR Bond process may die in the Senate. This has been her main priority this session, and one she has spent countless hours on. There are developers who claim to have made their plans based on the current formula for tax abatements, and they have been working overtime on this bill.
The Speaker certainly wants to override the governor's misguided veto on her bill to create a K-12 education rainy day fund.
The Raggio-Horsford tax study is a done deal.
Ironically, the one thing that may be holding up the session adjournment is the Governor's veto stamp! While he has railed against the wasted time and money of the session, his record-setting veto extravaganza may cause the legislators to hang around until 1 am Tuesday just to ensure that they have time to overturn any bills returnd by the Governor.
Assembly is currently honoring, one by one, their term-limited members.
