ST. PAUL, MN - With the 2013 Legislative Session underway, State Representative Greg Davids (R‑Preston) wants to know how the public feels about several issues that will be making news at the Capitol.
“We once again face a budget deficit, and lawmakers will also be deciding how to create more jobs in this state,” Davids said. “As we move forward, citizen input on these and other issues will be crucial. That’s why I strongly encourage everyone to respond to my session survey.”
Davids said his 2013 Legislative Questionnaire will appear as an advertisement in this newspaper. Once completed, it can be clipped out and mailed directly back to Representative Davids.
Davids also invites anyone to contact him with comments or concerns during the 2011 session. He can be reached by phone at (651) 296-9278. He can also be contacted via e-mail at rep.greg.davids@house.mn, or via U.S. Mail at 283 State Office Building, St. Paul, MN55155.
