Get Involved on a Reference Committee!
If you’re interested in serving on a future committee, please contact houseofdelegates@mms.org. Reference committees are teams of seven delegates that review the online testimony to help prepare recommendations to the House of Delegates.
Reference Committee Online Testimony Site (Typed Testimony or Video/Audio Upload)
The Reference Committee Online Testimony Site opens on April 30 immediately following the HOD First Session through May 6, 6:00 p.m.,
but static comments will remain for viewing. Members can testify online. Members can also propose an amendment to the Reference Committees (for the Reference Committees’ consideration) by typing it in the comment section.
“Cheat sheets” for how to use the site are available here:
