Dear Neighbors, Monday at 11am, I invite you to join Ramsey County Attorney John Choi and me for a Virtual Town Hall Meeting to discuss driver’s license suspension reform. Earlier this week, I was thrilled to learn the Minnesota County Attorneys Association announced its support of my legislation to prohibit driver’s license suspensions for an inability to pay a traffic ticket. I’m looking forward to our conversation with County Attorney Choi to discuss the impacts of our current policy and how my legislation will help Minnesotans emerge from poverty. You can watch and participate in the town hall on my Facebook page. WHAT: Virtual Town Hall to Discuss Driver’s License Suspension Reform WHEN: Monday, April 27, 11 a.m. WHO: Rep. John Lesch, Ramsey County Attorney John Choi WHERE: Facebook, State Representative John Lesch Your LegislatorsThursday night I had the honor to appear on the public TV program “Your Legislators.” I joined Rep.
