Expect action on relief enabling legislation for cities and a permanent relief act, with friction from interests wary of local fund transfers. The Senate is set to advance administration school bills and the 12.6 million school appropriation for the first quarter, along with a plan for state assumption of future interest payments on a 17 million deficit, both already through the House.
