Final Week of Session Determined To Be Dramatic
Session’s final week could be raucous
BY MICHAEL MCNUTT MAY 19, 2013
A triumphant ending to this year’s session may transform into a final week of shenanigans, last-minute deals and reopening sore wounds.
Instead of basking in their accomplishments, GOP legislative leaders are split on several issues they intend to take on this week:
•Whether to attempt a veto override on a House measure concerning state pension plans;
•Whether to eliminate common core curriculum standards legislators approved three years ago for public schools;
•How to deal with two measures calling for providing money to two state museums.
