Happy Thanksgiving!

November 26, 2025

Wishing everyone in our district a warm and joyful Thanksgiving. Whether you’re gathering with family, spending time with friends, or taking a moment for quiet reflection, I hope the day brings comfort, gratitude, and renewed hope for the season ahead. As your legislator, and as your neighbor, I’m grateful for the conversations we’ve shared, the ideas you’ve offered, and the care you show for our community. May your day be filled with good food, laughter, and the company of those who mean the most to you.
