The subcommittee held their budget closeout Thursday morning and it almost looked like they weren’t going to finish the subcommittee process. Rep. Seaton was very concerned about the subcommittee recommendations, and that the proposed cuts to DEED might be extensive enough that the department would be unable to carry out their mission. Before the recess for joint session it appeared as though members weren’t going to accept the subcommittee report.
After joint session and before the subcommittee reconvened, Rep. Bill Thomas, co-chairman of the House Finance Committee showed up and.....
.....just hung around for awhile. After reconvening, all the votes on amendments followed party lines, with Republicans voting against the amendments. Everyone voted to move the subcommittee report on to the full Finance Committee except Rep. Petersen.
