The House gave final approval to a bill that lets state workers collect more federal unemployment benefits and sent it to the Senate.
Meanwhile, the Senate is giving final approval to a bill that extends tax incentives and allows for low interest loans for an unidentified economic development prospect. It is sending that to the House.
