and non-partisan Legislative Affairs Agency (LAA) staff for
doing an amazing job that is often thankless and where you get
beat up a lot. During my ten years as a legislator, it has
been fantastic to work with you. Thank you for all you do to
take care of the State's business and the Legislature's
buildings. Senator Stevens and Katrina, good luck with
Legislative Council.

all of our State workers, especially those at LAA. Those who

been blessed and honored to do so for the last twelve years.
Thank you.
