Rep. Andrew Carlson (50B) – Legislative Update
Dear Neighbors,
The end of the year is approaching quickly. This also means the 2019 legislative session is around the corner. Members are still waiting to find out which legislative committees they will serve on. The committee assignments heavily shape the type of work each member will focus on for the legislative session. While we wait for those to be announced I wanted to pass on a few other tidbits.
