Legislator of the Year - Hans Dunshee, 44th district
"The legislative session started with a tiny Capital Budget that did not include an allocation for the Housing Trust Fund, but because of the skillful and determined work of Representative Hans Dunshee, the session ended with more than $67 million to create or preserve more than 1,800 homes for low-income households. This brings the two year budget total to an incredible $118.9 million! Because of Rep. Dunshee's work, the final budget also included an additional $25 million for weatherizing and energy efficiency, to make home costs more affordable for low-income households."
