Another piece of proposed legislation that has received a lot of attention is SB212, proposed by Senator Verdell Jackson. It sits in the senate judiciary committee having had its hearing last Tuesday. It was well attended.

This, too, the chair of the judiciary committee gave indication that he would like to bring to a vote sometime this week. The committee meets every day, at 9 a.m., in room 303.
