In
addition to the budget amendments mentioned in yesterday’s posting, VEA
initiated the bills summarized below, which are on our legislative agenda. We hope to have one more bill to list
shortly. I'll follow in the days ahead with other bills on our agenda initiated by coalition partners. I hope the bill numbers prove
helpful to you as you lobby from afar.
