Last Legislative Update Session Held

The final Farm Bureau Legislative Update session was held this morning with Senator Bray, and Representative Michael in attendance to discuss Legislation at the State House. Discussion varied greatly from Ag issues concerning property tax caps, SB221, the Puppy mill bill to Education issues such as directives handed down from the Supt. of Public Instruction on instructional time and unfunded mandates requiring schools to weigh and measure certain grade level students and report this to the state. Also, discussed were local government issues. Representative Michael also reported the results of her survey which could be presented here if someone would like to request it via the comments allowed for these posts. The Farm Bureau would like to thank the Legislators for taking the time to meet with us this year and discuss various issues of concern in Putnam County as well as thank the concerned citizens who came to voice their opinions.
