Join the Boise Metro Chamber for our 3rd Legislative Update this session, brought to you by Optum and AT&T. We will be visiting with members of the Joint Finance-Appropriations Committee about their duties, challenges, and opportunities as they analyze available revenue and state agency budget requests in order to set a balanced state budget. 2022 presents unique opportunities because of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA), and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act signed into law on Nov 5th, 2021. With Idaho’s state budget surplus, these funds provide Idaho the chance to address a variety of long-standing issues.
