House Appropriations Committee

Committees hold public hearings on bills, take votes in executive sessions, and study issues in work sessions. Learn about the Appropriations Committee, its membership and meetings, and how to participate.

    The House Appropriations Committee considers the operating budget bill and related legislation, budget processes, and fiscal issues, such as pension policy and compensation. The committee also considers bills with operating budget fiscal impacts.
