State Representative Bradley J. Fritts has returned to Springfield for the fall veto session, with week two commencing soon. Despite pressing issues such as property tax relief and ethics reform, no major legislation has been presented for a vote in the House so far.

Fritts is set to attend the Illinois Soybean Growers 2024 Farm Business Summit on December 17th, alongside State Senator Andrew Chesney. They will provide legislative updates and discuss important matters affecting soybean growers.

In recent community outreach efforts, Fritts visited the Surgical Technician Program at Illinois Central College with Leader Ryan Spain. He expressed gratitude to Director Sonya Conton and others for their hospitality during this informative visit.

Fritts also participated in the Annual Law Enforcement Legislative Luncheon in Freeport with House Republican Leader Tony McCombie and Leader John Cabello. The meeting addressed concerns about public safety policies like the SAFE-T Act and explored potential legislative solutions.

Speaking at the Veterans Day Breakfast in Rochelle, Fritts engaged with veterans about how he can assist their community further. Additionally, he congratulated the Whiteside County Health Department on opening a new Optometry Services facility, emphasizing its importance given limited specialized care options in the area.

To facilitate local engagement, Fritts introduced a 'Community Calendar' on his official website where residents can find upcoming events. However, state ethics laws restrict certain types of events from being posted.

For more information or to stay updated on his legislative activities, constituents are encouraged to visit Fritts's website or follow him on Facebook.

State Representative Bradley J. Fritts continues to communicate through newsletters to keep constituents informed about his work both in Springfield and within District 74.
