Greetings and hope the ice storm did not cause too many inconveniences or problems!It was a busy week at the Capitol, as I had three subcommittees along with regular committee work and talking with several constituents. On Monday, I was the subcommittee chair of House File 214, which makes it a simple misdemeanor violation with a $135 fine for drivers of vehicles not yielding to bicyclists in any crosswalk at an intersection.
