[LWVNM Action] LESC work plan

[Richard Mason]

Meredith,

You make an important point. There are two interim committees that have
large staffs. the LESC that you detail and the Legislative Finance
Committee that has a large staff.  The LFC staff actually develops the
initial legislative budget that will be heard in the next session. They
conduct studies and do analysis of legislation (FIR's) among other
functions.

Might be worth doing a mini-educational on these two committees.
