Every year it\u2019s the same process. The first few months of the session, policy committees debate the merits of bills. What would it do? How would it work? And on and on.<\/p>\n

Then the rubber hits the road: What will it cost? That\u2019s where the Appropriations Committees in each house take center stage. Just about every bill ends up on what\u2019s known as the \u201cSuspense File\u201d in one of the Appropriations Committees as the powers that be negotiate what will be moving forward.<\/p>\n

On the latest <\/a>installment <\/a>of CRPA TV<\/a>, Legislative Director Rick Travis is back to lead us through how this process will impact bills CRPA is closely monitoring<\/a>.
