JUNEAU – Thousands of low-income seniors were notified this week by the Department of Health and Social Services that benefits paid through the Senior Benefits Program will stop at the beginning of May.
Great news: We have passed an operating budget through the House, which now will head over to the Senate. I am honored to participate in this process alongside colleagues and friends on both sides of the aisle. All members participated in this budget process, and the budget that passed contains changes from Finance Subcommittees, full House Finance, and the House floor. Here are some highlights:
The House passed an operating budget this week, the House and Senate will meet in joint session to consider the Governor’s appointees next week. That and more in this week’s edition of the Edgmon E-News.
This week, my colleagues and I spent two days on the House Floor debating amendments to the FY20 adjusted base operating budget, House Bill 39
