Board staff says it is monitoring multiple election bills; omnibus filing possible
Summary
Staff told the board it is monitoring numerous election-related bills and will be ready to review language and respond quickly if an omnibus bill is filed; appropriations hearings were described as routine.
Bernadette provided a legislative update, saying staff has compiled a list of election-related bills in the packet and is monitoring developments at the capitol. She told members the board anticipates the possibility of an omnibus bill and has directors ready to review any filed language quickly.
"At this point in session, there's a lot of them," Bernadette said of election-related bills, and noted board staff and the legislative subcommittee would be on alert over the holiday weekend if language is filed. She added that appropriations hearings "went well overall" and the board awaits the actual budget bill to confirm funding.
