Here is some information that we posted on Facebook this week that might be of interest to you:

• Senate has announced that they will taking up their budget/tax bill on the floor on Monday at 11:00 am. (On a side note: look for the first amendment to be a “delete-all” that would substitute the Governor’s supplemental budget proposal for the Senate bill. This will give members of the Senate a chance to vote up or down on the Governor’s proposal.)
• Also, the Senate will take their Easter/Passover break starting Monday, March 29 at 5:00 pm through April 6, returning to the Capitol later on the 6th.
• We have posted a new issue brief taking a closer look at the state’s February 2010 economic forecast.

In other news,

• the Governor has issued his revised supplemental budget proposal reflecting new information from the February forecast. The changed items are highlighted in yellow.
• A complete list of the House targets are available online.
