weekly legislative update addendum

When the daily legislative updates come in I file them in a folder named legis and then review them Friday evenings to compile the weekly legislative update. Alas, in the excitement and planning for the Thanksgiving holiday Tuesday's daily update wasn't filed; it stayed in the inbox and therefore wasn't included in Friday's post.

Here is the list of bills that passed the Pennsylvania House or Senate on Tuesday.

Apologies for the earlier incomplete posting.
