A date for the special session has not yet been set.

The 99th Illinois General Assembly adjourned its spring session on May 31, 2015. Pursuant to House Joint Resolution 85 and upon the call of the Speaker and Senate President, both chambers will remain in continuous session after failing to reach a conclusion on a balanced budget by Sunday’s scheduled adjournment deadline.

The House stands adjourned until Thursday, June 4; the Senate stands adjourned until Tuesday, June 9. Legislators must work quickly to agree on a balanced budget before the new fiscal year begins on July 1.

The Washington Legislature adjourned its first special session on Thursday, May 28, 2015, only to immediately convene a second special session on Friday, May 29, 2015.

Gov. Jay Inslee called the second special session as a result of lawmakers’ inability to agree on a budget during the first special session.

Lawmakers must come to a budgetary agreement by July 1, 2015, or the state government could face a shutdown.

The First Extraordinary Session of the 90th General Assembly adjourned on Thursday, May 28.

The Minnesota Legislature will likely convene a special session after Gov. Mark Dayton vetoed the state’s education budget. Unless law makers can come to an agreement on an education budget before July 1, the state Department of Education will shut down.

The special session will likely convene in the coming weeks, but due to renovations at the Capitol, legislators will meet outside of their chambers. Minnesota law requires the Legislature to convene inside the city limits of St. Paul.

Dayton has until Saturday, May 23, 2015, to sign or veto any other budget bills, or let them become law without his signature.

The Idaho Legislature adjourned its special session Monday, May 18, 2015, just 12 hours after reconvening.

Lawmakers returned to Boise to approve changes to federal child support rules.

The bill has been sent to the governor who said he will sign it into law.

The Minnesota Legislature adjourned on May 18, 2015. Legislators scrambled to pass legislation minutes before the rigid midnight deadline. Gov. Mark Dayton has three days to accept or reject budget bills.

Dayton has stated on several occasions he plans to veto the education budget bill due to its lack of funding for half-day kindergarten. Should the governor veto that bill, a special session will be very likely.

According to the Minnesota Star Tribune, Senate Majority Leader Tom Bakk considers the special session “inevitable”. However, the Capitol building is undergoing renovation and therefore will not be a feasible location for a special session, should the governor convene one.

Dayton suggested the potential special session be held in a tent on the lawn of the Capitol, while area hotels offered their facilities as an alternative.

The Missouri General Assembly adjourned sine die on Friday, May 15. Lawmakers in the House sent 31 bills to Gov. Jay Nixon while the Senate, after admitting nothing more was likely to get done, adjourned hours early of the 6 p.m. deadline.

Senate Democrats stalled nearly every action in the last week of session after the Republican majority used a procedural motion to end debate and force a vote on a right-to-work bill barring mandatory collection of union fees.

All legislation pending in the Senate died upon adjournment; Gov. Nixon is not expected to call a special session to consider the unfinished business.

The Vermont Legislature adjourned sine die Saturday, May 16, 2015 late in the evening after completing work on a new budget. The previous day, lawmakers passed a lobbyist disclosure bill to increase disclosure during the legislative session.

If signed by the governor, it would be one of the strictest disclosure laws in the country, requiring monthly reports while the legislature is in session.

The bill also mandates lobbyist reports within 48 hours of running mass media campaigns of $1,000 or more.
