I believe this request has been responded to on a different thread. I wish to continue to ask JCOPE to provide disclosure statements from the staff of Rodneyse Bichotte. I was advised to be more specific; here are the names of said staff of the Assembly in the Office of Rodneyse Bichotte.
These persons should have filed at least once for a covered period between 2015 through 2018 (deadline dates in 2016 through 2019, respectively).

RAO:
My thanks for your reply.
I wish to ask, before this request is closed out, about the disclosures for persons I have not received (possibly due to attachment limits).
I have not received a disclosure for Rona Taylor; Ryan Merola; Michael Murphy; Margarette Tropnas; and Sam Maslow. These names appear in the Assembly's payroll records in Assembly Member Bichotte's office between January 1, 2015 up to March 31, 2019. I believe at least Rona Taylor should have filed multiple times in that time period.
