Neighbors and Friends,
We’re now completing our second week of the 2021 legislative session and committees and floor sessions are in full swing.
This week, the first Housing Finance and Policy committee, which I chair, met twice. Yesterday we heard presentations from several housing groups. We all know the need for housing is great statewide and our committee will delve into the causes and solutions to this vexing issue.
You can view the hearing here.
Town Hall
Join Sen. Marty, Rep. Hollins and me for a District 66 Town Hall next Saturday, January 23. We look forward to hearing your concerns and questions regarding the 2021 legislative session.
