Solon Advances Drastic Plan To Halt Calls
Alabama lawmakers debate a plan to curb legislative sessions with a sweeping measure proposed by Senator George Quarles. The plan would repeal almost all governor’s office appropriations until January, leaving only the governor’s salary and the contingency fund to operate the mansion while funding for further special sessions comes from the contingency fund at 32,800 per day. The move follows Gov. James E. Folsom’s push to end the marathon session, with six new legislators elected to fill vacancies and pending certification.
