Legislative Update from Rep. Jeff Backer

Friday, January 15, 2021

Dear Neighbors,

The first week of the legislative session is coming to a close. Much of our time this week was spent in committee with agency overviews from commissioners taking place.

As a reminder, I have been appointed to serve on the following committees:

  • Environment and Natural Resources Finance and Policy
  • Health Finance and Policy
  • Behavioral Health Policy Division

I recorded a brief video discussing each committee and the ways these assignments give me the opportunity to work closely on issues that matter most to our area and rural Minnesota.

You can watch the video here.

Staying in Touch

That’s all for this week’s update. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me to share any thoughts, concerns, or questions you may have. I can be reached by phone at either 651-296-4929 or 701-361-1909. I can also be reached via email at rep.jeff.backer@house.mn.

Have a good day,

Jeff
