Leveling the Playing Field for Consumers
Exciting news: my variable-rate loans bill
(Assembly Bill 24) passed this week in the Financial Institutions Committee
and will head to the Assembly Floor soon for a final vote!
The measure
will help level the playing field for middle-class consumers in the home
loan market. I'm very encouraged by the bipartisan support I have
received on this first bill for which I was the lead author.

Last week,
I spent a morning touring the Oostburg School District with Senator
Devin LeMahieu (right) and District Superintendent Kevin Bruggink (left). I
really appreciated visiting with some teachers and learning about the
district's latest programming for students. But my favorite part was
meeting these future voters!
Bring Home the Title, Bucky!
