Mendelson Markup and Final Reading COW Materials

Because HMS is currently down, I wanted to forward the updated PDF COW Agenda (The Committee on Health nominations have all deemed approved so no action is in order), the packets of the two items for markup in COW, and the filed version of the recess rules.  Please contact me if you have any questions, or attend the 1:00pm staff call where we can discuss any COW or Legislative meeting agenda items.
