It's easier than ever to see what’s happening in the state House of Representative—and to share your thoughts. You can watch any committee hearing or floor debate on tvw.org, either live or after the event. To share your story, you testify live in committees or sign up to testify remotely. And you can reach your lawmakers by email, regular mail, or the toll-free Hotline. If you’re interested in an issue, or passionate about solving a problem, please speak out!
