Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been filed. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session. During the week of Sept. 9-13. the House met for a total of two hours and 40 minutes and the Senate met for a total of two hours and 44 minutes. Mon. Sept. 9 House 11:01 a.m. to 11:11 a.m. Senate 11:07 a.m. to 11:14 a.m. Tues. Sept. 10 No House session No Senate session Wed. Sept. 11 No House session No Senate session Thurs.

For fun Eileen made several beautiful Irish knit sweaters, especially for all the babies in the family. She loved sitting on her porch talking with her neighbors and always had a book in hand. When the sun went down, she would go inside and watch all her favorite game shows like Wheel and Jeopardy.
