As Senate discusses resuscitation of economyMontserrado County Senator Abraham Darius Dillon has requested the endorsement of Senate plenary to institute a comprehensive audit of the National Legislature. The communication from Senator Dillon, who is among fourteen other Senators seeking re-election in the October 2020 Special Senatorial Election, is the first to appear before plenary on the first day sitting of the 3rd Session of the 54th Legislature. Meanwhile, minutes following the adoption of its agenda yesterday, the Senate went into executive session to discuss the report of its selected committee on the resuscitation of the Liberian economy. It can be recalled that the state of the economy was an issue that was discussed several times throughout the sittings of the 2nd Session of the 54th Legislature; and for which the Senate was recalled twice for special extraordinary sessions. Vice President Taylor was again absent from the first day sitting of the 3rd Session yesterday.
