The governor signs additions to the state highway system while bills taxing railroads by gross receipts fail in the senate. House actions exempt dry cleaners from gas tax and religious groups from inheritance tax. Several lawmakers seek local political seats as session closes, and a broad set of tax, compensation, and anti discrimination measures are debated, with adjournment unlikely before May unless drastic cleanup occurs.
