Next Step in State Budget Process: The House Ways & Means Budget Release- April 11th

MALC is actively following the Commonwealth’s FY19 budget process. We watch for several “line items” in the budget- the Massachusetts Cultural Council (MCC), funding to our libraries, the tourism funding formula, and the film tax credit program. We also monitor what is filed in the “outside” section(s) of the budget.

The first step in our state budget process was the release of the Governor’s budget in January.  The second step is the release of the House Ways & Means proposed budget on Wednesday, April 11th.  MALC will report in our blog on Wednesday, and the days that follow, on this second step of the budget process.

Stay tuned as they say….
