Robyn serves as a member of the Committees on Health, Children & Families, Small Business Development, and Financial Institutions, in addition to the Assembly Task Force on Adoption.
In Madison, she works on policies related to protecting the health and safety of children and families, promoting good government, and supporting small businesses.
