After creating an account for bill tracking, I signed into it, then went to the "LIST" tab up top and created a new list. I called my list CMV. Then I went through adding, one at the time, the two CMV bills submitted to the public health committee. If you are having trouble, call the website IT person at 860-240-0000.
