Legislative Cost/Study
The Legislature’s baseline budget for 2026-2027 includes funds for the Legislature to meet in special session on 2 days each fiscal year following the applicable statutory deadline. Whether or not there are sufficient funds to cover the cost of extending a regular session will depend on the length of the extension and the number of times the Legislature is required to convene in special session during the interim.
