00_icon_tallysheetWith the House out of session over the last week, the legislative load on the floor of the Senate was lighter as lawmakers continued to analyze the state budget at the committee level. Senators introduced just 14 new bills over the past week. Of note:

Snow days. S. 629 (Hayes) would allow local school boards to waive up to three missed days due to weather.

Child care videos. S. 632 (Allen) seeks to require publicly-operated child daycare and aftercare centers to have outside video cameras.

Non-discrimination. S. 639 (Hutto) calls for the “Uniform Anti-discrimination Act” to expand discrimination to include discrimination based on sexual orientation, with many provisions.
