During an election year, there are certain restrictions on my communications to prevent the use of state resources for election purposes. One of these restrictions is a freeze on this website, meaning no new content can be added beginning May 6, 2024 until after the general election in November. If you have questions or comments about legislative issues, please feel free to continue to contact me.
