The Legislature adjourned the 2009 Regular Session at 6:00 pm on Thursday, June 25^th.  The PJAL had an excellent session.  All but one bill in the PJAL Package passed the Legislature and we believe will be signed into law by Governor Jindal.  The one bill from our package that did not pass was voluntarily left on the Senate calendar at the request of the PJAL. The PJAL was also able to defeat a number of measures aimed at roll-forward of millage rates.  The only measure that passed was a dramatically amended version of HB 83 which makes minor adjustments to the notice provisions of roll-forward meetings.
