Poor ventilation will add still hurting, which is es- pecially difficult this time of year. My focus will be on policies that will get people back to work. The extension of the tax relief packages was a much needed start, but there is more to do. We must work to roll back the complex and needless federal regulations that continue to hamper growth. Businesses can’t focus on expansion when they are constantly trying to jump through regulatory hurdles and cut through red tape. The massive levels of fed- eral borrowing and spend- ing must be reined in as well. Right now govern- ment is crowding out the private sector. Only private enterprise can create the jobs we need for a full eco- nomic recovery. While supplies last. Certain terms & conditions apply. While there is much to be done, it continues to be a privilege to serve as your representative to our na- tion’s capitol. I look forward to hearing from you and working with you in the coming year.
