Lawmakers have reconvened in Springfield for the final days of the 103rd General Assembly. This session, known as the "Lame Duck" session, represents the last opportunity for current lawmakers to cast votes before the new assembly takes office on January 8, 2025.

The term "Lame Duck" is used because it signifies the period when outgoing legislators make their final legislative decisions before newly elected members are sworn in.
