A quick session update and why rural hospitals matter

The legislative session is moving fast. Short sessions always do. It reminds me of those stretches on the farm when the weather window is tight and there’s more work than daylight. You start the morning walking the rows, checking on things, and before you know it you’re running hard just to keep up.
Today is Policy Committee Cutoff — the last day to read in committee reports from the other chamber, except for the House fiscal committees and the Senate Ways and Means and Transportation committees.
That’s how this stretch of session works. Some proposals gather momentum and keep rolling, while others stall out along the way.
