“My primary responsibility as Ranking Member of Bonding is to craft a bipartisan bill that remains under the $1.9 billion bond cap and funds needs, not wants, and must haves, not nice to haves,” said Rep. Floren. “My priorities remain education, housing, and community and school-based health centers.”
"Having been involved with a lot of public safety legislation during my time at the Capitol, I am grateful to Rep. Klarides for appointing me to be on this committee,” said Rep. Camillo. “I am also honored to be sitting on the Veterans Committee this session. Having worked on behalf of veteran causes in the past, I hope to continue to be a strong voice in support of the men and women who served us in the military. Lastly, I am happy to be returning to the Commerce Committee – one of the most productive groups in the legislature. I am always inspired and energized by the truly bipartisan approach we take to each bill we consider, and hope we can make an even greater effort next year to encourage new employers to invest in our state."
