This week in Springfield, lawmakers wrapped up their final legislative session of 2023. The veto session has seen legislators deliver major legislation in years past, but this year legislators stalled on several major initiatives — Karina’s Bill, the “Right of First Refusal” and the staff unionization bill — pushing those off to next year’s agenda.

The Herald spoke with local state Sen. Robert Peters (D-13th) for an in-depth perspective on the six-day, two-week session, and for a preview of his legislative priorities for the coming year.
