TaBOR Update

So, where has TaBOR gone to? On March 23rd, it was passed along to the Senate Finance Committee from the Judiciary Committee. It's almost been a month...what's up with it? Good question.

If you have seen the bill, you will notice that there is an attached fiscal note assuming a cost of $20,000 to print notice of the proposed amendment to newspapers around the state (as required by state law for a Constitutional amendment such as this).

Since this is money that isn't budgeted, it must be heard in the Finance Committee after the Appropriations bill which will be heard sometime during May. After that, then the TaBOR bill will be lined up with everything else that requires additional money.

Bottom line...TaBOR is delayed until late May or so. I'll pass along more information as it becomes available.
