Legislative Update
This has been a wonderful week in the Senate and I wanted to take a minute to share it with you.
I’m dedicated to serving you, so I’ll be emailing our legislative updates weekly during the session.
You can watch my short clip to the right, or you can find some of the highlights below.
I look forward to staying in contact with you over the coming weeks as we seek to make Georgia a better place to live, work, and raise a family.
