"Citizens routinely reach out to my office searching for programs that can help them get the training they need to provide for their family and live a prosperous life," said Weaver. The incumbent representative further added, "Despite shocking last-minute opposition to increase transparency in our job training programs, I held my ground in advocating for this measure and was honored to pass the bill with 70 out of 118 votes."
