Happy Friday! Here is my 2nd bill to highlight - H700. Grateful that Olivia Oestreicher, my intern and a @frc4905 member, brought the need for robotics team funding to my attention. Also want to thank @SenJohnVelis for filing the bill in the Senate, and the 31 co-sponsors as well

We had a fantastic Day 3 of Summer STEM! Today, we tested the aerodynamics of paper airplanes, learned how Earth filters water, about fluids and viscosity, and tested our own bottle rockets! Thank you to Jim VanGilder for talking to us about STEM and helping us learn fluid flow!
