How Do They Work?

Steering Committees are the driving force behind our policy positions, as no action can be taken without a majority in favor. Each committee has a chair and vice-chair who facilitate meetings and are elected every January at the beginning of the Legislative Session. Steering Committees are the fundamental means by which we adopt a position on a given piece of legislation or related issues (for example, child care funding). For more information on a specific bill, please read the latest Legislative Report or check the Bill Table. Steering Committee meetings usually take place back-to-back Thursdays and Fridays.

Legislative Briefing Meetings

Legislative Briefing meetings happen monthly during the legislative session and are led by CCI staff to provide updates on high-profile and newly introduced bills. No votes will occur in legislative briefings, instead, they provide an opportunity to gain insight into certain legislation before Steering Committee meetings. CCI staff strives to provide meeting agendas the Wednesday before Legislative Briefings. Meeting agendas will be posted here and made available to members in calendar invites. For questions, including virtual meeting details, please contact Kieran Boes (kboes@ccionline.org).
