These hearings offer you the opportunity to express your opinion about the proposed budget. If you attend a hearing, you do not have to speak. You can submit a prepared written statement or fill out an attendance card with your comments. You can also send comments to the Chairpersons of the Committee.
After these hearings are held, the Joint Finance Committee will begin to develop their own version of the budget sometime in May. You can continue to contact members of the Committee or your own legislator throughout this process.
