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

  • The full Senate paid tribute to the late Sen. Geraldine Thompson, who served in both the House and Senate for almost two decades.
  • A House committee grilled the past and current insurance commissioners about a 2022 report on insurance company profits that was not revealed until reporters uncovered it this year.
  • The full Senate passed its first bill of the regular session – SB 112 – designed to expand treatment and educational opportunities for children with autism spectrum disorder.
