Interim Session
Following the completion of the general legislative Session begins the off-season, or "Interim" Session. Once a month we meet in committees comprised of both House and Senate members and begin to craft and discuss proposed legislation for the 2016 session and other issues on the Master Study list. Over this interim period I will be serving on the Judiciary and Health and Human Services Interim Committees. Our first Interim Session will be on May 20, 2015. Here's the schedule if you're interested: http://le.utah.gov/interim/2015/pdf/2015InterimSchedule.pdf
If you have issues or concerns please contact me. I am already working on several pieces of potential legislation with constituents for the 2016 session and would love to hear from you.

- 50-year Celebration / Open House at West Lake Junior High School
On Wednesday, West Lake Junior High School held an open house to celebrate 50 years since its opening. That's right.... It opened for the 1964-65 school year. They had a great slide show, 50 years-worth of yearbooks, student-body officer sweaters through the years, trophies, etc. Thanks to all those who attended and made this a great event! Just to clarify, that is a West Lake "Mustang" hanging out with me in the upper-left photo. :)
- Former Governor Norm Bangerter
