PRIMARY: In support of Elaine Price
Just because a representative or senator votes against a bill doesn’t mean they are opposed to an issue. A bill may be superfluous, doesn’t address a problem, or may cause unintended consequences. Rep. Elaine Price has been criticized for voting against House Bill 907, a career technical education appropriations bill. Recently, she clarified that she wasn’t against the program, but HB 907 was adding money to a program that was already fully funded. Elaine takes her job seriously and works to protect your money and not spend it unnecessarily.
Institutional knowledge is a critical asset in the private sector and the same can be said for the public arena. Elaine Price has served on the Joint Finance and Appropriation Committee for two years. JFAC is one of the most time-consuming committees. It consists of 20 elected officials who review, allocate, and vote on multiple departmental budgets from each state agency along with the governor. You should see how thick her budget binder is! Elaine’s experience and “math brain” is invaluable.
