Legislative Update
This week I was sworn in for another term as State Representative for District 14A. It is truly an honor to represent the people of St. Cloud and the surrounding communities, and I look forward to getting to work. I am elected to represent the needs and priorities of our area, and I’d love to hear from constituents about what is most important to them. Our community is a wonderful place to work and live, and I welcome the opportunity to make it even better through my work at the Capitol.
I was named to three House committees: Commerce Finance and Policy, Environment and Natural Resources Finance and Policy, and Housing Finance and Policy. I will serve as the Republican Lead member on the Housing Finance and Policy committee.
Governor's Updated Restrictions
On Wednesday, the Governor announced changes to his business and social restrictions, including the following changes:
- Restaurants allowed to reopen indoor dining at 50% capacity.
- Gyms remain open at 25% capacity, with the maximum occupancy raised to 250.
- Outdoor event capacity is raised to 250 at 25% capacity.
- Indoor entertainment and events (bowling alleys, movie theaters, museums, etc.) may open at 25 percent with a cap of 150.
- Youth and adult sports games may resume January 14 with spectators subject to the same indoor entertainment restrictions.
- Pools are open at 25% capacity.
- Wedding receptions and other "private parties" may resume with limits. If food and drink is served there is a limit of two households or 10 people indoors and 3 households/15 people outdoors. If there is no food/drunk, they are covered by the event/entertainment restrictions.
- Churches remain open at 50% but the overall capacity limit has been lifted so there is no maximum.
