REORGANIZATION POLITICS
I won election as Chair of the House State Affairs Committee. I have served as a member of this committee during the preceding four years. State Affairs is an important standing committee, and many substantive bills are assigned to it. I also obtained membership on the Judiciary Committee, as well as the International Trade, Economic Development, and Tourism Committee.
Committees are where the “heavy lifting” on legislation occurs i.e. the hard work. Testimony is received from bill sponsors, the administration, and the public. After that, a bill is either held in the committee, or is passed out of committee with individual “Do Pass,” “Do Not Pass,” “No Recommendation,” or “Amend” votes.
