Hello Friends, While we were busy doing our best to celebrate Passover & Easter and staying socially distant from our places of worship and our loved ones as the government told us to do, our Governor was very busy over the weekend signing into law the legislation that was passed by the new majority in […]
Hello Friends, This past week has been tough. We continue to home school our kids, watch our local businesses struggle, worry about the future of our own jobs, and remain fearful about standing closer than six feet from anyone we encounter.

We are down to the final couple of weeks of the General Assembly Session 2020. The house bills are starting to come our way for a vote in the Senate. This week also saw the Senate budget bill coming across our desks for a vote.
This past week was ‘crossover’ which is the deadline for having all the bills from the Senate pass over to the House for their vote before heading to the Governor’s desk in April to veto or sign into law.
I got off my couch and ran for office because I felt like I was not being represented in government.
This week was some work! Although I am definitely in the routine now of subcommittee and committee meetings and daily floor sessions, I continue to learn every day and to still be in awe of my new job and responsibility.
