The 107th General Assembly adjourned tonight!

Besides some political maneuvering that killed the Health Care Compact and a few other bills in the House…all in all, I am proud of the conservative legislation that passed this year, including legislation covering:

- Reforming Judicial oversight
- Decreasing taxes on food, gifts, and inheritance
- Criminalizing harmful synthetic drugs
- Harsher sentences for aggravated rapists
- Welfare reform
- Tort reform
- Religious freedom in universities

…in addition to passing a conservative budget, reducing the size of government, and helping foster an environment of job growth (now if only Congress and the President could take note)

Thanks to Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey and all of my colleagues in the Senate, as well as my outstanding conservative House members Rep. Linda Elam, Rep. Terri Lynn Weaver, Rep. Mark Pody and Rep. Kelly Keisling.

Stay tuned for my year-end wrap up of legislative news in the coming days.
