The MN House Committee on Rules and Legislative Administration discussed HF4025 (Koegel) Minnesota Advisory Council on Infrastructure established. (I have written about this bill before.) They gave it a deadline waiver and re-referred to Ways and Means.

Comments:

What are fiscal implications of this bill?
That will be discussed in Ways and Means.
This is frustrating.

Why was fiscal note delayed?
There were changes to the bill.

Is there an updated fiscal note?
They are still working on it.

The bill was discussed for about five minutes. It is one reason I am thankful for technology and broadband, which meant I could watch Wednesday afternoon from home rather than driving through rush hour and cold winds to get to the Capitol at 8:30am. Beyond my own convenience, it’s one example where broadband helps us all participate (or at least pay attention to) in civic life.
