This project features important graphics, infographics, and announcements for the general assembly. Some of these feature a bill being passed or vetoed, important community information, or data the caucus members want represented to their constituents. My main goal when creating graphics for the MGA is to make sure the visual appeal is attractive to the target audience as well as easily digestible language.
