They are currently scheduled to return to Springfield on February 6.

The General Assembly reconvened in Springfield on January 16-17.

The legislators spent little time in committee or on the floor and canceled the scheduled Thursday session.

They are currently scheduled to return to Springfield on February 6, just prior to the deadline for filing bills.

The General Assembly is unlikely to hold many votes prior to the Governor’s State of the State Address on February 21.
