A plethora of bills were passed at a crowded Finance Committee meeting.  H.B. 432, H.B 167, H.B 335, H.B. 292, H.B. 414, H.B. 313, H.B. 532, H.B. 545, S.B. 131, H.B. 318,  H.B. 243, S.B. 447 and H.B. 692 were all approved in rapid succession, prompting Rep. Brawley to comment that he’s seen auctions move slower than this committee meeting.

S.B. 527 , Life Sciences Development Act, was the only bill that brought about much debate. It was also passed.
