The Senate could vote today on legislation calling for further study of pre-kindergarten and a bill involving alcohol sales at the Indiana State Fair is slated to be voted on by the full House. The House Ways and Means Committee is also scheduled to examine a Senate-proposed phase-out of the business personal property tax.
