The standard procedure is to stall everything for months and then complete the business in a flurry during the rush to adjournment in June

The General Assembly here works that way too. Everything gets passsed and voted on in the last days of the session. Several times in the past they have 'stopped the legislative clock' by pulling the plug on the electric clock in the assembly chamber at a few minutes to midnight on the last day of the session to buy themselves some more time. One year they pulled the plug on the clock at few minutes before midnight and continued to argue and vote on things for another three days.
