Each session, in addition to the work CCI performs to ensure that bills do not result in unfunded mandates for counties and are properly resourced for successful implementation, CCI proactively initiates member-approved legislation that addresses inefficiencies, launches new programs and tools counties can use to address the needs of their communities, and revises existing law to better reflect on-the-ground implementation realities. CCI members approve, on average, six to eight issues each year (more than any other association).
