HB 3 & HB 4 pass out of House A&R Cmte
June 16th, 2009
HB 3 passed out of the House A&R Committee this afternoon with a committee substitute. The substitute amended the minimum wage for incentives in non-enhanced counties from 175% of federal minimum wage to 150%. This is a change that we endorsed and are pleased to see included in the approved legislation.
The amended bill now goes to the full House for consideration tomorrow.
Also, HB 4 easily passed through the House A&R Committee. This bill, which would create infrastructure authorities to help fund mega transportation projects, will soon be heard by the full House.
