Representative Hawkes has served in the Utah House of Representatives since January 2015 and was recently appointed House Rules Committee Chair for the 2019 Legislative Session.

Hawkes will explain the purpose and accomplishments of the caucus, give us a preview of issues he expects to be addressed by the 2019 legislature, and answer questions from the audience.
This is a great opportunity for citizens of Davis and Weber Counties to interact with a state legislator and learn more about issues the legislature will be addressing in 2019.
