Legislative Report

Close The House is now in an extended recess for the 2021 Regular Session.

While we have completed the vast majority of our work for the year, we will return in the fall to address congressional redistricting.

The Governor has indicated he may call a special session around that time to address additional tax cuts.

Legislation passed so far this session has reduced taxes by $84 million for the current fiscal year and is projected to cut another $197 million in taxes for Fiscal Year 2022.
