On Monday, January 30th, we reconvened for a productive fourth week of the 2017 legislative session. Committee and subcommittee hearings were in full swing as we considered a number of bills. We also took Senate floor votes on issues regarding alcohol regulations in regards to craft breweries, as well as, healthcare initiatives. Please find my full report of last weeks happenings below.
Last week, I also had the pleasure of presenting many resolutions.
