If you listen closely, you can hear a rumbling in the distance. That's the sound of Virginia's whole political apparatus stirring from its months of slumber and preparing to head back to Richmond for tomorrow's reconvened session.
Both the Senate and House of Delegates will meet and deal with an unusually short list of amendments, as witnessed by the House and Senate calendars for the session.
Look for some minor fireworks over some of Kaine's budget amendments, but legislators and idle gossips alike say there could be a real blow-up over proposed amendments to Senate Bill 596. Find our background on the amendments here.
We'll also get our first look at the fight between House and Senate over hundreds of millions of dollars in bond funding for higher ed, state parks and hospitals in the second meeting of what has promised to be the first of two special sessions on the year.
See you in the galleries.
