Assembly Republicans asked for a brief caucus before the chamber votes on SB 232 to swap out GPR for federal stimulus money in the current fiscal year to ensure the state has a positive balance on June 30.

UPDATE: We have a quorum call.

UPDATE 2: The bill passes 76-22. Here's the roll call.

Both sides are now meeting in caucus.
