The current survey regarding bill processing, messaging and bill recall went out a couple of months ago. Brenda passed out a survey response report which showed that 43 of our 99 chambers have responded and she said that was about what is expected at this point in the process. Brenda will resend the survey to non-responsive chambers when she gets back home. Then after a couple of weeks she will send committee members an updated survey response list.
The committee went over the list of non-responsive chambers and members signed up to make follow-up calls to specific chambers. Once the updated response list is received from Brenda, committee members will make follow-up calls to the remaining non-responsive chambers.
After discussion of the two-year survey process, committee members were satisfied they were right on track. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
