The first four days in early January will focus on organizational work, such as electing legislative leaders, adopting procedural rules and organizing committees. Bill introductions will also start.
After that, lawmakers won’t reconvene until Feb. 2 for the second part of the session.
The veto recess period is scheduled to begin March 17. During that time, lawmakers commonly return to their home districts while the governor reviews bills sent to him and considers any vetoes.
