    Week Eleven: Sine Die in Sight

    THE FINE GEDDIE REPORT 2019 REGULAR SESSION · WEEK ELEVEN MAY 24, 2019 SINE DIE IN SIGHT: Broadband Expansion, Equal Pay, and Budgets Move Forward as Lottery Stalls Although there are six possible meeting days left in the 2019 Regular Session, all signs indicate an early departure: Legislators have stopped introducing legislation and next week’s proposed floor calendars are focused on final consideration of certain bills. The House will take up the Education Trust Fund budget on Tuesday and the General Fund budget will go to conference committee next week. Once the Legislature has fulfilled its constitutional obligation to approve the budgets, they are expected to adjourn sine die. Other key items currently hanging in the balance – such as Senator Marsh and Gov. Ivey’s constitutional amendment to restructure governance of public elementary and secondary education and bills to expand development of broadband infrastructure – are expected to be priorities next week. This week was a fast-paced, three-day week with significant action. Two proposals to expand broadband internet service in Alabama made progress. The biggest news was the compromise reached on a bill allowing electric utilities to use their easements to offer broadband service. HB400 by Rep. Randall Shedd (R—Cullman) was revised on the Senate floor Wednesday before being approved by the upper chamber. On Thursday, the House concurred with the Senate’s changes, and the bill is now pending Gov. Kay Ivey’s signature. A related bill to retool the state’s broadband accessibility grants and incentivize development of higher speed internet received a favorable report as substituted from the House Ways and Means Committee on Education.
