“ | My goal is to make our district pro-growth, focusing on bringing in industrial and economic development. I don’t want to just talk about transparency and being available to my constituents, I want to make a plan now that puts those actions in motion. Town hall style meetings to discuss the upcoming bills in the legislature and opportunities for the constituents to ask questions and express concerns is a great start, one in which we can open up communication between the voters and the elected officials.[2] | ” |
