The Legislature is officially suspended through April 10th. The State House and Legislative Office Building are not open. If the Legislature resumes on April 13th, we can expect bills will crossover from House to Senate (and vice versa) by the end of April. That means the session may be extended into June. As of now, they are to be finished with most business by Memorial Day.
