The official seal of Guam is surrounded by a collection of framed historical images inside Hagåtña's Congress Building.

The Guam Legislature will go back into session Aug. 8 to provide senators with copies of the proposed executive branch budget, and lawmakers will meet again Aug. 11 to deliberate on the measure.

Sen. Chris Duenas said senators tried to get the committee report to senators on Wednesday, but because of the tsunami advisory, the legislature shut down early.

The report is more than 1,000 pages, and will be available before session is called again, Duenas said.
