When the legislature last met, on 5/23/2020, several bills had been approved for Senate consideration in the 2020 Fall Veto Session:








That Veto Session never took place, and there is currently no indication that these bills will be taken up in the Lame Duck Session.


Also at that time we were actively watching 5 bills, the most critical being SB1966 Block Illegal Ownership (fka Fix the FOID Act). Given that the Senate has not committed as of this writing to any Lame Duck Session days, perhaps the best way to look at this bill is that they probably have not pre-planned it's passage, but nothing is guaranteed.


The House, on the other hand, has scheduled session for all 5 days beginning the afternoon of 1/8/2021, through 1/12/2021. Though the morning of 1/13/2021, is potentially available for 101st General Assembly business, none is anticipated at this time. Rather, the House will convene at noon on the 13th and proceed directly to the 102nd General Assembly Inauguration. While we're currently keeping an eye on HB5548 House Amendment 1 and it's companion in the Senate, HB3840 Senate Amendment 1, it's potential effect on us is not an immediate threat. Given this overall lack of bills touching on our interests, our intention is to report events in a single Lame Duck thread unless changing circumstances dictate otherwise.



I am unable to obtain a BlueRoom password at this time. If anyone has it please let us know.




The House is scheduled for 12:00 Noon on 1/8/2021. The Senate is not currently scheduled.



Next Days Scheduled


House: 1/9/2021

Senate: 1/10/2021

Put the serial number on the very top/Point of each bullet. That way it is easy to read/scan it.

... only if it remains undeformed with its jacket intact after it hits whatever it hits. That's why serialization proponents advocate "laser" etching a QR code on the base.

 

You missed the sarcasm, a real congress critter would have bought my recommendation. ;-)
