Super Committee and debt negotiations

Just this morning, a public organizational meeting of the Super Committee took place marking the beginning of debt negotiations by this special committee.  The group is made up of 12 members from both Houses and is charged to produce a proposal to create $1.5 trillion in debt savings over the next 10 years.  See the Super Committee Overview and Updates from McBee Strategic for details on what we could expect to see from this group as they work towards the December 23rd deadline.

Co-Chaired by Senator Patty Murray, Washington is in a key position to engage in the process, and WSU is working with coalitions statewide around the institution’s pillars of excellence.
