(OK) A few thousand bills were filed, but only a few hundred succeeded during the 2008 legislative session.

Before the second half of the 51st Legislature began in February, 2,551 bills had been filed - 1,334 bills and resolutions in the House and 1,207 bills and resolutions in the Senate.

As the 2008 session progressed, committee and house deadlines rendered final verdicts on more than 3,600 bills, according to eCapitol's records. These bills ultimately failed legislative deadlines.

Thus far, 259 bills - 141 Senate bills and 118 House bills - have received the governor's approval this year. In 2007, the governor signed 364 bills - 179 House bills and 185 Senate bills, according to eCapitol's records.
