Appropriations
The Conference Committee continued meeting in small, informal groups this week. By early next week, we should know more about their thoughts on our allocation. To stay within the rules of the House and Senate, the Conference Committee should have the appropriations bill finalized by Thursday of next week.
The Committee’s final determination on group health insurance and nursing initiatives is critically important to DCCCD. Related to the nursing issue…we provided talking points to our area hospital administrators so that they could help us spread our message in Austin, which is part of our ongoing efforts to extend DCCCD’s advocacy efforts.
