Chair opened the hearing, welcomed attendees, and recognized Jennifer Swenson, a long‑time appropriations consultant retiring after 30 years in the legislature and 12 years with this committee; the Chair thanked staff, the speaker's office, sergeant's office and IT personnel for supporting the democratic process. The Chair framed the suspense‑file process as balancing limited resources among priorities and noted the governor will ultimately decide the fate of bills that reach the Governor's desk.
