Dear Friends and Neighbors,
The Legislature’s annual Easter/Passover break is upon us, giving legislators a chance to catch their breath after the last few weeks of intense deadlines. While I’m spending my break catching up on my work outside the legislature as well as spending time with family, I’m hoping everyone else is getting the chance to get outside and into the sunshine.
I will also be contemplating the coming last few weeks of the legislative session. We have had contentious issues arise this session as well as those that share bipartisan support. All of the budgets are out from the House, Senate and Governor. The stage is set for the last month of session.
Now we have to come together to make the final decisions on what our final budget will be as well as what policies will shape our state in the years to come. So as we all take our reprieve with family and friends I ask that you reach out and share your thoughts and feelings on the different legislation as we move forward. I’m going to do my best to share what bills are coming to the floor as soon as I know about them. I’ll be sharing them on Facebook and reviewing actions taken during my normal weekly newsletter.
So enjoy the holidays with your family and keep an eye out for more information next week.
From Ours to Yours,
John
