MONAHANS — State Representative Brooks Landgraf (R-Odessa) attended the Monahans City Council meeting on Tuesday to discuss the local and statewide response to the COVID-19 pandemic and answer questions from the mayor and council members.

“Mayor Cutbirth, the city councilmen, Rex Thee and I had a great discussion about the challenges the city faces and what the legislature can do to help,” Landgraf said.

Landgraf, who represents Ward County in the Texas House of Representatives, met with the city council to offer any assistance the city may need from the state.

“I wanted to be sure to let the city know that I’m here to serve, here to work alongside them as we work to get back to normal,” Landgraf continued. “We are all in this fight together.”

Landgraf is attending this and other local government meetings across the Permian Basin to keep locals informed about actions to combat the coronavirus and prepare for the next session of the Texas Legislature, which convenes at the Texas Capitol in January 2021.
