PERRYSBURG - Life has been busy since Tim Brown worked his way to the Ohio Statehouse.
The state representative shared experiences from his first eight months in office with those at a Perrysburg Area Chamber of Commerce luncheon on Wednesday, touching on recent legislative efforts and issues in the state as he sees them.
"One of the most frequently asked questions I get is 'So what is it like?' and I usually respond to that with a question," he said.
"I ask, 'Have you ever tried to drink from a fire hose?' It's a lot, all at once."
Brown (R-Bowling Green) said his and other legislators' initial project this year was Ohio's $62 billion biennium budget, a challenging first task for those without experience holding state office.
"You introduce a lot of new people very quickly to one of the most important processes that our state engages in."
