Capitol Update – Nightly During Session – Friday, February 07, 2020

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

• Senators approved a bill to require parental consent for minors who want abortions – sending it to the House for near-certain approval.
• State programs and proposed legislation drew scrutiny over how they impact gay, lesbian, and transgender communities.
• The Supreme Court listened to arguments concerning the wording of two proposed constitutional amendments – which the Attorney General claims are misleading to voters.
