“I had the unusual experience of attending a Historic District Committee meeting on the evening of July 9th to speak in favor of building the President George H.W.

“I urge the governor to veto H.B. 5002. Let’s go back to the drawing board, work together across the aisle, and find real solutions that address housing affordability—without gutting local control.
