Ottawa Democratic St. Rep. Lance Yednock says the governor’s budget proposal is a starting point. He says he’s looking forward to working with his colleagues to craft a budget that prioritizes the true needs of the middle-class and working families. Yednock says the legislature must recognize COVID-19 relief as one of the priorities, along with resources for essential workers, and the services and needs of veterans. And he says he wants to fund affordable health care and mental health services, plus job training for those returning to a new economy.
