Neighbors and Friends,
Friday, July 22 is the deadline for frontline workers to apply for a bonus for their work during the pandemic. Money set aside for this program will be split equally among all approved applicants. I appreciate those who put themselves in harm’s way and encourage them to apply if eligible and to spread the word to friends and family. The deadline is 5 p.m. Friday, tomorrow to apply.
In the Community
Summer is a very active time in our district and this week I was invited to speak at the annual Lauderdale evening in the park. As always, those attending were engaged, and I very much enjoyed the event on a warm summer night.
Next week I will attend a Roseville School District meeting. Community housing needs and results of the strategic plan will be discussed.
COVID-19 Update
Every home in the U.S. is now eligible to order a third round of free at-home COVID-19 tests. Click here to place your order. You can also call 1-800-232-0233 (TTY 1-888-720-7489). More COVID-19 updates are available through the Minnesota Department of Health website, or the U of M Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP).
Communications
During an election period, legislators cannot use state resources for unsolicited communications because it might create an unfair advantage. This is my last weekly update until after the election.
I appreciate your interest in my weekly updates and want you to know I am still available to help with the state-level problems and to discuss important issues in our community, so please reach out if I can assist in any way.
______________
Sincerely,
Alice
