Dear Neighbors,
Minnesota?s 2023 Legislative Session officially began on Tuesday as I joined 133 of my colleagues in taking the oath of office at a ceremony at the State Capitol.?
It is an honor to return to St. Paul to serve as you and your family?s representative in the state legislature. This year?s session will be a busy one as we are required to negotiate a new two-year budget and make decisions on how to proceed with the state?s $17.5 billion budget surplus. As for myself, I am hopeful that we can approve a budget that is reasonable, responsible, and limits government growth. Additionally, I would like to see the state?s budget surplus returned to Minnesotans through permanent tax relief.
Most of my work during the first months of session will take place in House committees. For the 2023-2024 legislative biennium, I will serve as the Republican-lead on the Public Safety Finance and Policy Committee. I have also been assigned to both the Ways and Means Committee and the Human Services Policy Committee.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any legislative questions, concerns, or ideas. I can be reached by phone at 651-296-4237. I can also be contacted via email at?[email protected].
Have a great weekend,
Paul
