Texas, Minnesota Legislatures Set Key Deadlines for New Bills

News summary

As deadlines loom for state lawmakers across the U.S., Texas House Speaker Dustin Burrows emphasized the importance of methodically reviewing the more than 6,000 bills filed ahead of the March 14 deadline for new legislation. In Washington State, a recent fiscal committee deadline resulted in the rejection of numerous bills, including proposals for free school meals and tighter regulations on ballot initiatives, highlighting the challenge of navigating a multibillion-dollar deficit. Bills must pass out of their originating chambers by March 12, with the session concluding on April 27. Meanwhile, Minnesota legislators have established their own timeline for committee actions, with critical deadlines set for April 4 and April 11 leading up to the end of the session on May 19. The varying deadlines reflect the diverse legislative priorities and challenges faced by each state as they work through their respective legislative agendas. Overall, as state governments grapple with budgetary constraints and the legislative process, the fate of many proposed bills hangs in the balance.
