Lawmakers return to session after Spring Break

State lawmakers, who are half way through the legislative session, go back to work today.

Lawmakers have not officially started work on the budgets, which is expected to be a major challenge because of the state's financial problems. They also have yet to introduce a bill aimed at fixing problems with Alabama’s immigration law.

A bill that would authorize charter schools is also expected to generate debate that may dominate this second half.
