ANDREWS — State Representative Brooks Landgraf (R-Odessa) attended the Andrews County Hospital District board of directors meeting at Permian Regional Medical Center on Monday to discuss the upcoming session of the Texas Legislature with the hospital’s board members and administrators.

"I’m always excited to visit PRMC,” Landgraf said. “These board members are a hardworking group, and Russell Tippin leads a great team that really has this facility firing on all cylinders.”

Landgraf, who represents Andrews in the Texas House of Representatives, met with the board to offer any assistance the hospital may need from the state.

“To be a good state representative and a good legislator, I need to meet regularly with local officials here in Andrews to learn about the issues they’re facing and to make sure they’re getting the state resources they need to serve our fellow West Texans,” Landgraf added.

Landgraf is attending this and other local government meetings across the Permian Basin to prepare for the next session of the Texas Legislature, which convenes at the Texas Capitol in January 2019.
