Since our last post, the Legislature has taken several additional actions. Here are the major ones:

* The Texas Senate Finance Committee passed SB 2 (the sunset scheduling bill that extends the life of five agencies set to expire).

* The full Senate passed SB 2 this afternoon.

* HB 3 (Comprehensive Development Agreements) was left pending before the House Transportation Committee.

* The House set a calendar for tomorrow containing House Bill 1 (Proposition 12 road bonds) and House Bill 2 (Sunset Safety Net Bill).

Based on this action, here are where the session's three major bills stand:

* HB 1 (Road Bonds): Passed House Appropriations Committee. Set on House Calendar.

* SB 2 (or HB 2) (Sunset Scheduling Bill): Passed full Senate. House Companion passed House State Affairs Committee. Set on tomorrow's House Calendar.

* SB or HB 3 (Comprehensive Development Agreements): Bills remain pending before the Senate Finance Committee and the House Transportation Committee.
