  • The full Senate approved a bill that would switch the burden of proof to prosecutors in Stand Your Ground self-defense hearings.
  • The House Appropriations Committee reviewed results of subcommittees’ budget cutting exercises.
  • Legislators, staff and visitors donated professional attire for college students, recently released inmates and others in need so they can make a good impression in job interviews.
