House Committees

The Infrastructure Modernization Committee was a standing committee of the Michigan State Senate. The seven-member committee was created on February 7, 2013, by the amendment of Rule 2.103 by Senate Resolution No. 14. The committee was disbanded after the 2014 session.

Function

The rules of the Senate and House do not describe the jurisdiction of the individual standing committees except that all Senate bills involving an appropriation must be referred either directly to the appropriations committee or to an appropriate standing committee and then to the appropriations committee. Traditionally, the assignment of bills follows topical lines.

According to a release by the Michigan Senate Republicans, the committee "includes the chairs of the Senate Appropriations and Senate Finance committees and will consider all transportation and infrastructure funding proposals."
