That’s why this session, we’re focused on getting back to the basics: smaller government, stronger families, and real accountability to the taxpayers. 04/17/2025 05:48 AM

I initially thought it was National Pet Week, but it seemed more like National Donut Week! The week started on a sweet note when Carl generously donated blueberry cake donuts on Monday morning. Sharon added to the feast with an assortment of sugar and oatmeal cookies for everyone. On Thursday, Barbara brought delicious fruit-filled pastries, and Kim contributed an assortment of donuts on Friday.

Thankfully, they were thoughtful enough to take out all the calories! 04/17/2025 05:48 AM
