The 109 th extra session produced few firm outcomes beyond Canadian reciprocity, campaign finance publicity, house reapportionment and a recall-friendly Arizona statehood plan. Many measures stalled in the Senate, including direct election of senators and arbitration treaties with Britain and France, with investigations into trusts and public expenditures shaping the pending regular session.
