West Side Legislators Advocate for Common Sense Gun Safety,
Support for Schools, and Paid Legislature
By Ellen Coplen
In their first in-person Legislative Town Hall since the COVID pandemic, Representative. Joy Garratt, HD 29 and Senator Harold Pope, Jr., SD 10, encouraged their constituents to contact them directly and said they rely on members of their districts to help them resolve problems and advocate for issues that impact their lives.
“I’m always so moved when people come to these events,” said Rep. Garratt. “We are here to report, but we also want to hear from you what’s important. If you have issues that you feel aren’t being addressed, we want to hear from you.”
Sen. Pope reiterated the sentiment. “The best legislation is going to come from you,” he said, explaining that the legislative sessions are a small part of the work that they do. “Constituent services are a big piece of our role throughout the year. That’s our main job — to help you.”
