[LWVNM Action] Fwd: League Priorities that are close, but need action

[Richard Mason]

I should note that I did not include any tax credits we supported in this
list. The overall tax bills are already done and they are either in there
or not.

I got the number for the Microgrid Oversight Act wrong. It should be SB235,
not SB265
