I think I’ve figured out how to get the links to work so,
you should be able to click on the bill number and it will take you to the State
web site and allow you to read the complete text of the legislation. I know that it works on my side but I’m a
little worried that something in the process of translating to The Landing may
cause problems.
Just three days until Spring Break for the General Assembly
and it’s none too soon.
Let me know if the links work, or if they don’t and I’ll
continue to refine the process until they do.
And the links don't work.
I'm going to load this as a PDF, which you will have to download to read. You can look at the Blog then, if you want to find out more go to the PDF and look at the text of the bill..
