Monday Quick Hits: Hot Policy Topics for This Week

Only two weeks until the start of the short legislative session. Committees that have been meeting during the interim are starting to wind down this week and present their recommendations for session.  Quick reminder: only bills that passed one of the chambers in long session, or an appropriation bill, or a bill that comes out of an interim committee is viable for the short session.

Of specific interest this week will be the recommendations from the Education Oversight Committee. This committee took up the debate on banning corporal punishment for all children with disabilities. Their recommendations are due on Tuesday, April 27.
