Legislative
Working
Committees
The 2021 Legislative Session
The North Dakota Legislature meets every
other year. The 2021 the session starts on
Tuesday, January 5th and will continue through
April or early May. During this time, hundreds of
bills will be introduced proposing changes to
State law. Committees will hear testimony. Individual Legislators will receive letters, faxes,
e-mails and phone calls. Discussion and debates
will take place and, finally, the Senate and House
will vote, one by one, on each bill and resolution.
Many of the bills introduced will have the
potential to impact people with disabilities and
their families. Appropriations bills will determine
how much money is allocated to services for individuals with developmental disabilities,
mental illness and other disabilities. Other bills
will address health care, insurance, education,
long-term care and support services, to name a
few.
State Senators and Representatives make
decisions on how to vote based on information
provided to them by their electors. It is
extremely important that, as individuals with
disabilities, family members and advocates, we
are informed about the issues and that we
express our views to our Legislators. Legislative
Working Committees were created to help us
learn about the issues, the process, and how to
communicate effectively.
LEGISLATIVE WORKING COMMITTEES
A statewide LWC meeting will be held each Friday afternoon, beginning January 8th, from 3:15 – 5:00 p.m. Central Time. LWC’s will meet through the end of the Legislative Session. Generally, this will be the end of April or early May.

making a difference
for people with disabilities
in North Dakota
Legislative Working Committees are “the pipeline” for people with disabilities, family members and advocates to network and receive information about disabilities-related legislation. Each week, group facilitators will review new bills introduced, the status of pending bills and upcoming hearing schedules. Participants are encouraged to express their individual experiences and views to Legislators and will receive support and assistance, upon request, with contacting their individual Legislators or with preparing testimony.
Legislative Working Committees are not “owned” by any one group but are supported by many individuals and organizations that care about people with disabilities. The goal of the Legislative Working Committees is to educate people with disabilities, family members and advocates about the Legislative process, disability-related legislation, and the protocol for communicating with State Senators and Representatives.
