Legislative Summary 2009

The 2009 Legislative session ended with the fall of the Speaker’s gavel Saturday, May 9.  While the session was a short one, only sixteen weeks, it was a tumultuous four months due to our fiscal crisis and the resulting program challenges, faced by Governor Douglas and the Legislature.

Given the sometimes tense climate in which the executive and legislative branches labored, we are pleased to report that our accomplishments this session are many and our losses few. A full list of our accomplishments follows as well as summaries of the issues which drew our focus this year.

On behalf of the Chamber and GBIC’s Government Affairs staff, we thank our members for their input and participation this session. Your counsel, and your willingness to share your expertise, enables us to represent our members well and effect change under the Golden Dome.
