The 2022 legislative session is quickly coming to a close.  Last week was turnaround, considered the halfway point of session.  However, it is not the same amount of time to complete the “second half” of session.  The first half is about 1.5 months, while the second half is less than 4 week.  We have about two weeks for committee meetings and then a few full days on the floor to work bills. 

There are still some major issues to tackle – redistricting maps, a budget, election security, health freedom, and hopefully tax cuts, including sales tax on food.  With so many important issues to be finished, the next few weeks will be extremely busy.

There were a few bills debated on the floor, but no final action was taken during the week.

It is an honor and a privilege to serve as your 12^th District State Senator.
