Andy Kanengiser of the CL reports: "A House committee today approved a $141 million bond bill for building projects at Mississippi universities, two-year colleges and state agencies. 'The needs are out there,' said House Speaker Pro Tempore J.P. Compretta, D-Bay St. Louis after the panel's voice vote. Compretta said the goal is to keep the building wish list below $200 million for 2004. 'This is the beginning of the process.' House Bill 1793 now goes to the full 122-member House Wednesday. The Senate is expected to consider its own higher education bond bill this afternoon."
