Greenberg withdraws in vitro bill
Rep. Dan Greenberg's bill to repeal the mandated health insurance coverage for in vitro fertilization is on today's "members' own withdrawal calendar." The bill garnered significant media coverage when it was prefiled on December 9.
The only other bill on the withdrawal calendar is HB1059, which sought to establish an investment tax credit for the rehabilitation and development of central business improvement districts by Rep. Tracy Pennartz.
As usual, the session is getting off to a slow start while bills work their way through committees. Joint Budget (9:00) and most of the "B" standing committeess (10:00) will meet today, and the only bill for consideration on the House floor is the Senate's expense bill for the session. That'll take place at 1:30. I have an early meeting with some constituents who are driving up this morning with concerns about raising the cigarette tax.
