The end of the formal legislative session is July 31st. This\u00a0weekend (Saturday, July 30th \u00a0& Sunday, July 31st), both the House and the Senate will be in what is called formal session. During these sessions, the Representatives and Senators will be voting to\u00a0override the Governor’s budget vetoes\u00a0and will also be working to pass legislation.<\/p>\n

What can\u00a0you do?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Contact both your State Senator and State Representative to vote to override the Governor’s vetoes for our sector!<\/p>\n

See our blog post on what vetoes need to be overridden and how to advocate:
\nhttp:\/\/artistsunderthedome.org\/malc\/news\/reminder-please-advocate-override-governors-vetoes\/<\/a><\/p>\n

To see the list of legislation the legislature is\u00a0trying to pass and to better understand what the formal legislative session is, see this MALC blog post:
