Higdon seeks constituent input as 2018 General Assembly set to convene

Sen. JIMMY HIGDON
14th District State Senator

SEN. JIMMY HIGDON

Wednesday, Dec. 20, 2017 — I want to wish you and yours a happy New Year as 2017 is quickly ending and the 2018 Legislative Session is rapidly approaching. Constituent input has always been very important to me as your elected official, and I want to thank you for contacting me throughout this year. Although we had a productive 2017 Session, in 2018 we will be addressing some major policy issues facing the Commonwealth including constructing the biennial budget and shaping the road plan.

As I always, I want your input on the 2018 Session. Please take a moment to download and fill out my legislative survey and return it via mail or email.

Thank you for your questions, comments, and ideas throughout the year. I look forward to continuing the discussion in 2018. Have a blessed and happy New Year.

Meanwhile, I will be hosting legislative coffees around my district. I want to give you opportunities to share your thoughts with me at my upcoming legislative coffees:

  • January 8: Meeting at the Nelson County Old Courthouse – 8 a.m. with Rep. Chad McCoy
  • January 15: Meeting at the Marion County Chamber of Commerce at Center Square – 8 a. m. with Rep. Reed
  • January 29: Meeting at the Casey County City Hall – 8 a.m. with Rep. Elliott
  • February 5: Legislative Coffee at the Spencer County-Taylorsville Chamber of Commerce – 8 a.m. with Rep. Tipton
  • Additionally, the 16th Annual Josephine “Mama Jo” Nuckols’ Prayer Breakfast will be held on January 6 at 8 a.m. at the Lebanon United Methodist Church located at 235 North Spalding Avenue. This breakfast is a great way to kick off the New Year with members of our community, and I hope to see you all there.

If you have any questions or comments about these issues or any other public policy issue, please call me toll-free at 1-800-372-7181, on my home phone at 270-692-6945, or email me at Jimmy.Higdon@LRC.ky.gov. You can also review the Legislature’s work online at www.lrc.ky.gov.
