This is a short summer for the legislature as we will already be starting Committee Meetings next month. Already we are starting to look at new legislation and beginning to plan delegation meetings so we may hear from our constituents on their issues and ideas. Marion County will be having their Legislative Delegation Meeting on October 19th.

I have traveled a lot this summer and attended many conferences from Miami to Boston. I attended the National Conference of State Legislatures in Boston and was able to hear from Frank Luntz, one of the nation’s foremost political commentators and pollsters, about how many American’s trust their local and state officials much more than their federal counterparts. My office is always open and available to constituents for help or comment. Please do not hesitate to reach out.

Among all of my travels, I have been privileged to be named Legislator of the Year for Florida Coalition of Children, Florida Bail Bonds Agents Association, and the Florida Police Chief’s Association for my work during the 2017 Legislative Session. I received an “A+” from the Foundation for Florida’s Future and American’s For Prosperity. I also received awards from PACE Marion and the Florida Property Appraisers Association.  I am honored to have received such recognition from my first year in the Senate.

As we begin looking toward the 2018 Session, remember to stay engaged with your legislators and let them know your thoughts and concerns.

It’s your government!

Onward and Upward!
