SUPPORT & OPPOSITION LETTERS

Support and opposition letters are due by 12:00 noon the Friday prior to a scheduled hearing in order to be included in the analyses.

  • Letters must be on letterhead with a signature and title of an official of the organization or designated authorized representative.
  • Coalition letters must have logos, signatures, and titles for all organizations.
  • Letters of conditional support or opposition WILL NOT be listed in the Committee analysis.
  • Letters must clearly indicate the organization's position (letters containing "concern" will not be listed).
  • Submit letters only once unless the bill is subsequently amended, causing uncertainty as to the organization's present position.
  • Please continue to submit position letters on bills that have passed out of our Committee for future floor analysis on the bill.
