3. Looking Forward - Session Preview

  • I’ve spent a lot of time knocking doors, attending community meetings, and visiting with voters and businesses in our district since the end of the 2023 session. I got some excellent feedback to guide my 2024 priorities.
  • I continue to hear concerns about crime, especially crime by young people. I started my career almost two decades ago successfully reducing crime committed by teenagers here in the North Metro. I’m writing a bill for 2024 to surge resources to proven strategies to scale them up to drive crime rates down.
  • I also continue to hear concerns from manufactured home park residents in our district about high rent increases. I’m working on two bills for 2024 to help. The first bill aims to protect manufactured home park residents from unreasonable increases in their rent. The second bill will make it easier for residents who want to buy their parks to form co-ops to give them control to set their own rent and rules.
  • I’ll keep you updated with future efforts!
