The 2025 Legislative Session is here! Here's a quick message from opening day on what I'll be working on as your voice at the Capitol.
Thank you to the people of the 32nd District for once again placing your trust in me to serve as your state senator. This session, I look forward to continuing the work to improve your quality of life, most immediately by addressing the soaring cost of energy, improving public safety, and making our state more affordable for families, seniors, and businesses.
Affordability begins with a government that holds its spending in check, and I will continue to advocate to uphold the fiscal controls that prevent supermajority Democrats from spending even more of your money. It will be a long session and I’ll continue to keep you updated. Please do not hesitate to reach out to my office with your ideas and concerns.
