The Honorable, The Senate:
This is to request that Senator Grobschmidt be added as a coauthor of Senate Joint Resolution 17, relating to four year terms of office for district attorneys.
Senator Grobschmidt had called my office requesting to be made a coauthor of this Joint Resolution and a member of my staff inadvertently left his name off the bill jacket while filling it out.
I appreciate your attention to this matter and am hopeful the official record can reflect this change.
Sincerely,
Brian Burke
State Senator
