Jul. 17–The Legislature adjourned for its month-long summer recess, and many lawmakers plan to spend their breaks serving constituents in their districts.

You might see them on the road in vehicles leased for them by the state. Call it a perk of power, although lawmakers do have to pay part of the lease costs. The rules say their choices are limited to U.S. brands or foreign-made hybrids.
