The Senate voted to pass a 121-page bill through an expedited process called emergency certification. The bill introduced Wednesday covers a wide range of issues from education to election law to warehouse ownership requirements. It also includes earmarks – directing millions of dollars toward various nonprofit groups and municipalities. All Senate Democrats and Republican Senator Tony Hwang voted in favor of the legislation; the remaining Republican Senators voted against it. We spoke with Senator Hwang about his decision to vote for it.
