“This legislative session, it’s time we bring new ideas and new legislation to the table to ensure our families, veterans, schools, first responders and small businesses are looked after. I was grateful to organize and be a part of multiple rural equity forums last year where my fellow assemblymembers and I learned a lot about the issues plaguing our rural communities. Now that legislative session has begun, I am eager to voice the concerns we heard from residents and share ideas for legislation that will help revitalize rural regions of the state.”
