The Revenue Committees’ hearing on February 14, 2019, will begin one hour earlier than normal at 12:30 P.M. Due to the expected volume of testifiers the committee will be limiting testimony to three minutes.

Those who are unable or do not wish to testify in person on a bill may submit a written position letter that will be included in the official hearing record as an exhibit. In order to be included in the record the letter must be delivered to the office of the committee conducting the hearing, or emailed to the committee chair, by 5:00 p.m. on the last work day immediately preceding the hearing.

Additionally, the letter must include your name, address, the bill number, your position (for, against, neutral), and a request that it be included as part of the public record.
