Committee Weeks

Though everyone knows most of the “give and take” of Bill development occurs in various committees, many don’t know this work began last October. In October, November, and December 2009, Legislators came to Tallahassee for “Committee Weeks”. In January there are two Committee Weeks and in February there were two Committee Weeks for everyone and a third week for Legislators serving on appropriation committees.
