Today's Hot List

After a Saturday marathon in House Ways & Means, the fiscal committees are wrapping up most of their work and slowing down as marathon days on the floor are set to begin later this week.

Today marks the fiscal cutoff, so only bills that are considered necessary to implement the budget (NTIB) are still in play in committees.

A couple items of note on today's schedule:

Noon - Rep. Hans Dunshee will announce a bond package that he says will create as many as 90,000 construction jobs in our state.

1:30 - The House Transportation Committee will take up the 520 tolling bill that was originally scheduled for action last week.

1:30 - The House Ways & Means Committee will vote on the House operating budget proposal.
