§ 10604 Committee Staffing And Funding

Key Takeaways

  • •A special group (committee) can hire people and decide how much to pay them.
  • •The money to pay these people comes from a special fund shared by two big groups (Assembly and Senate).
  • •This works the same way as other groups like this one get their money.

Example

Imagine a school club that needs to hire a teacher to help out.

The club can decide to hire the teacher and how much to pay them. The money comes from a shared piggy bank that all school clubs use.
