The printouts show bill number, sponsor, section of state law affected, title, and dates of referral, enactment, or other action.
The following committees are represented in this accretion: Aging; Banks; Cities; Commerce, Industry, and Economic Development; Consumer Affairs and Protection; Governmental Employees; Governmental Operations; Health; Housing; Insurance; Judiciary; Labor; Local Government; Social Services; Real Property Taxation; Small Business; Tourism, Arts, and Sports Development; Transportation; Veterans Affairs; and Ways and Means.
