Bill Would Extend Open Meetings Law to Legislators
A state bill sponsored by Sen. Terry Bruce would add the General Assembly to the open meetings act, requiring legislators to face the same public-access rules as local officials. The measure, assigned to the Senate Executive Committee, follows concerns over private sessions and quasi private caucuses used to hammer out policy and decisions.
