The State and Local Government Committee is meeting in a work session to review the Biennial Budget on this Wednesday March 7th at 1 pm. Please provide testimony either in person or via email to the Committee.

The meeting will be in the Cross Office building behind the Capital in room 214. Please make it in person if you can.

To provide written testimony electronically, send it to the committee clerk Maggie Hood [log in to unmask] 

A document formatted to provide testimony is attached. It is important that you inform the committee of the importance of GeoLibrary work and how it affects you, your job, your community. If you are using data from the GeoLibrary now explain why it is either deficient or needs regular updating to maintain currency.

This is very important to help assure the line items do not get traded out for some other budget item deemed more important by the Appropriations committee!

Your loud and vocal support is needed NOW!
