Special "Extraordinary" Session 10/03/2017 This week your state legislature will reconvene. It will be the first “extraordinary” session of the 71st General Assembly. What that really means, in normal terms, is that there is a matter so great that we must be called back to Denver to make decisions that cannot wait a minute more.
