Special session agenda still undecided
Everyone agrees that Gov. Phil Bryant will call a special session before July 1 to take up three appropriations bills that died during the just-completed 2017 regular session.
But could a lottery also be on the agenda when the Republican governor calls the special session?
Clay Chandler, a spokesman for Bryant, said simply Monday in an emailed response, βThe governor will decide between now and the special session whether the lottery β and anything else unrelated to the agency budgets β will be included in the call.β
The governor has the authority to set the agenda for special sessions.
