The Capitol and Capitol Annex are now closed to non-essential personnel and the general public.
Now, access to the 2020 Session is moving into a “virtual mode” for its remaining few days. Lawmakers have critical work ahead on major issues this Session. To date, the 2020 Session remains scheduled to adjourn on April 15, 2020.
