The Joint Finance-Appropriations Committee is meeting this morning for the first time since finishing up most agency budget-setting on March 9. Senate Finance Chairman Dean Cameron, R-Rupert, told the joint committee that this may not be its last meeting this session, but it could be its second-to-last.

This morning's agenda includes "trailer" bills to adjust budgets to match legislation that's passing, including the state Historical Society's bill to take over some records management from the state Department of Administration; and the bill to shift alcohol beverage license fees to the state's Alcohol Beverage Control Division to allow it to add enforcement officers. Also on the agenda are two agency budget reconsiderations, for foster care and the Council for Deaf & Hard of Hearing; transfers to the constitutional defense fund and legislative legal defense fund; and a briefing from the Attorney General's office on a mortgage foreclosure settlement.
