The Mississippi legislature was busy this week with committee meetings as we approach a deadline for Tuesday January 30 to have House Bills out of their corresponding committees. If you have watched the House floor action during the past few weeks you generally would have seen the House convene for only a short time. It may seem as if nothing was happening to someone watching from the outside, but the action was in committee meetings. Beginning Wednesday of this next week there will be more floor action as the House begins to debate and vote on all the bills passed out of each committee.
