HOW’D THE LEGISLATURE DO?

Every year since 2009, we’ve given readers a guided tour of the legislative session’s follies, misadventures, missed opportunities, and accomplishments. This year’s guide includes sections on tax favors, education, spending, health care, restructuring, regulation, and individual liberties. There are also substantive explanations on Common Core, tax reform, and the debacle known as the ethics reform bill. You’ll find links to legislation, brief plain-English explanations of what the legislation would do, and a wrap-up of the year’s state budget.
