2024 Legislature Reaches Mid-Point

2024 Legislature Reaches Mid-Point

February 15, 2024 Last Edit: June 5, 2025

The Legislature continues to methodically process carryover legislation from the 2023 session and bills designated as priorities by individual senators and committees during the current session.

Lawmakers adjourned on Thursday, for a long four-day weekend, having reached the mid-point of the 2024 Legislative Session. The Legislature continues to methodically process carryover legislation from the 2023 session and bills designated as priorities by individual senators and committees during the current session.

The deadline for designating individual senator and committee priority bills has passed and the Speaker will unveil the remainder of his priority bills on February 20. These “priority bills” and debate on the biennium budget adjustment package of bills will shape the agenda for the balance of the session. Any bills that have not been prioritized, amended into a priority bill or eligible to be considered on “consent calendar” (bills advancing from committee with no dissenting votes and no opposition) are not likely to receive further consideration this session.
