1:01Now PlayingThe Legislative year wrapped up in a flurry of action last week, so in case you missed anything I'll get you caught up right here!
The Senate passed a bill that will allow undocumented immigrants to take a drivers education course and apply for a drivers license.
Another bill passed will make it easier for more sexual harassment cases to be taken to court and will extend the statute of limitations in rape cases.
Senators passed a bill requiring farmers provide overtime pay to laborers who work over sixty hours a week.
The Senate also passed the most aggressive greenhouse gas emissions reduction mandate in the country. The bill will create more green jobs and cut greenhouse gas emissions.
The Senate passed a bill decriminalizing marijuana further so that possession of up to two ounces of weed will result in a violation ticket. The bill will also expunge many low level marijuana convictions across the state.
And Senators legalized e-scooters and e-bikes allowing cities to opt into the program.
