Legislative Update from Rep. Selcer
Posted by SD48 DFL Communications Team in Letters to the Editor, News, Our Candidates & Elected Officials
With summer fully in motion, I wanted to take a moment to update you on some of the encouraging economic news I continue to receive since the legislative session ended in May. We are blessed to live in a state with such a hardworking and resilient workforce. By investing in world class schools, job training, and a balanced budget that kept our state working, Minnesota’s economy has continued to show positive signs of growth that outpace national indicators at every level. I’m pleased to report that:
I’ve spoke to many of you at community events this summer, and I am encouraged by the hard work you’re doing as we all strive to improve our community and our state. You can feel the positive momentum behind our success, and we need to capitalize on it as together we continue to build out of the recession. It’s an honor to serve our community, and I’m always interested in your concerns and ideas about how we continue positive economic momentum moving forward. I welcome you to contact me at any time throughout the summer and fall at or 651-296-3964. Best, Yvonne Selcer State Representative |
