Friends, Session is in full swing. So far, I have co-authored two pieces of legislation that I think can impact us all. HF2389 would allow for two assistant commissioners for the Pollution Control Agency. I believe in creating jobs. Today, growth in our infrastructure sector is being determined by the number of emissions these machines create. This will only continue. I am hopeful by allowing for assistant commissioners on the Pollution Control Agency, the workload will be better balanced, and our businesses can get quicker responses when needed. I am also co-sponsoring HF3293. This legislation will provide $250 reimbursement for postsecondary schools that offer professional peace officer education. Peace officers include city police officers, sheriffs, deputy sheriffs, State Patrol officers and others. I am always proud to back the men and women who put on a uniform every day to serve and protect my family and yours. More is sure to come this session. Every day it seems, cities across the country are laxing Covid-19 regulations and mandates. It is my hope that Minnesota continues to do the same so that we can get back to living our lives. If you need anything, please reach out me. |
