Dear Neighbors,
We have had a very busy few weeks at the Capitol, and this week has been particularly packed with meetings all day and into the evening as we near our first committee deadlines. In the committee I chair, Human Service Policy [ [link removed] ], we have heard many measures related to assistance for substance abuse disorders, behavioral health, and those with disabilities.
This week, I was honored to speak at the Disability Services Day at the Capitol rally. I emphasized the importance of expanding services and increasing access to those who need the assistance.

Federal Assistance for Small Businesses Affected by Warm Winter
The 2023-2024 Minnesota winter has been historically warm. While many have enjoyed the milder temperatures, snowy winters are essential to the success of Minnesota?s winter tourism and outdoor recreation industries. Our snowy winters are also how so many Minnesotans make a living with snow services.
Affected small businesses can now apply for federal assistance to help keep them on their feet. You can apply here [ [link removed] ].
