In this week's episode of In Session, host Heather Mongilio and statehouse/county government reporter Steve Bohnel discuss the latest information about the coronavirus, which has been a topic of discussion among lawmakers in Annapolis.

Later on in the episode, they discuss two bills involving local sponsors. One is from Sen. Ron Young (D-Frederick) mandating that elementary schools statewide allot 150 minutes total each week for physical education and recess.

The other is cross-filed, with Del. Jesse Pippy (R-Frederick and Carroll) from the House of Delegates and Sen. Michael Hough (R-Frederick and Carroll) as local sponsors. They sat on a task force last year which included multiple stakeholders, all who tried to strengthen the state's criminal gang statute. Both Pippy and Hough said the proposal aims to tackle more white-collar crime statewide.

They wrap up the episode by discussing a "signature move" of Del. Kumar Barve, chair of the House of Delegates' Environment and Transportation Committee.
