Capitol Update – Nightly During Session – Friday, April 12, 2019

Capitol Update is daily review of state government during the Legislative Session. Today’s topics include:

• The House and Senate budget plans differ by about 400 million dollars – an issue budget leaders say they’ll likely start negotiating after the Easter and Passover holidays.
• A proposal that would allow any teacher to train to be an armed classroom guardian passed its final Senate committee stop, but not without debate.
• State and local officials gathered in South Florida where an outbreak of Hepatitis A, a highly contagious virus, has killed 3 people.
