The House Appropriations and Revenue Committee meeting scheduled for Monday has been canceled.  We were anticipating the vote on the Stream Saver Bill would be held then, but now we expect it to happen during its normal Tuesday meeting at 10 a.m., room 154 of the Capitol Annex. 

We still need you to take the following action if you haven't already.
