The Joint Committee on Ways and Means has announced the hearing schedule for the FY2011 Budget.
Three dates are important for human service advocates.
The February hearing are opportunities to listen to the listed state agencies present their budgets. It is possible for the general public to testify at the end of the agency executive's testimony. This is not a place for large crowds, but well-informed advocates who can present testimony succinctly can be effective.
