Today marks Day 1 of the 60-day Session. There is some “pomp” and ceremony today, but with a very full agenda, the Legislators will begin work by mid-day.
Tops on the agenda, and one of our priority issues, is the deferral of the increases in the state unemployment tax for our states business. A 10-fold increase was effective January 1, 2010, the result of high unemployment and extended coverage periods for unemployed workers. It is expected that both chambers will pass and the Governor will sign this rate increase deferral as early as today.
