    I make every decision with the needs of the entire state in mind. To help me do right by all our residents, I’ve sought out the advice of local officials across the state of every background and political affiliation. We don’t always agree, but it’s always a two-way dialogue.

    Incredible artwork delivering an important message. We can't thank our medical professionals and all our essential workers enough. Let's be and stay in to protect those who can't.

    💙 Our gratitude to those on the front line taking care of all of us. We can do our part by staying home 🏡, and wearing a mask when going out in public. 😷
