JFC Hearings: Who Plans to Testify?
By Wisconsin School Administrators Alliance staff | March 20, 2017
As you know, beginning on April 3rd, the Joint Finance Committee (JFC) plans to hold six public hearing on the Governor’s 2017-19 budget bill. Those hearings include:
- Monday, April 3 – UW-Platteville, Platteville
- Wednesday, April 5 – State Fair Park, Milwaukee
- Friday, April 7 – Berlin High School, Berlin
- Tuesday, April 18 – Spooner High School, Spooner
- Wednesday, April 19 – Ellsworth High School, Ellsworth
- Friday, April 21 – Marinette High School, Marinette
These budget hearings have traditionally been held from 10am to 5pm. However, the JFC committee clerk cannot confirm the start and end times for the hearings as of yet. We also do not have additional location information (i.e. building, room, etc.) for each hearing as of yet. As soon as we do, we will forward this information to all SAA members.
We have been told by Capitol sources that it is extremely important for administrators, board members and parents to show up at these hearings to advocate strongly on behalf of the children we serve. Those SAA members interested in testifying at one of these six hearings should let me know so I can help coordinate the arrangements for your testimony.
We will follow up with more information on each hearing when it becomes available.
