Ind. Gov't. - What is the role of the new House Committee on Government Reduction?
There was much fanfare late last year when House Speaker Bosma appointed Democrats to head two House committees. One was the newly created House Select Committee on Government Reduction, to be chaired by Representative Dobis (D).
What exactly was to be the charge of the new committee was unclear to me -- was it to reduce regulation, eliminate some state agencies and combine others together, etc?
Today, looking for a cue, I took a look at what bills have been assigned to the new committee.
Here is the list, there are currently 3 bills assigned.
Another House committee whose name indicates a similar charge, Government and Regulatory Reform, chaired by Rep. Hinkle (R), currently has 15 bills assigned.
