A McKeesport-based lawmaker will be taking on extra responsibilities again this year in Harrisburg.
State Sen. Jim Brewster, a Democrat, will serve as Democratic Chair of Senate Law and Justice, Game and Fisheries Committees. The veteran lawmaker has also been appointed to seats on the Banking and Insurance, Education and Transportation committees.
“Serving as chair on both Law and Justice and Game and Fisheries is an honor and privilege,” Brewster said. “There are significant issues to be discussed and key decisions will have to be made about modernizing our liquor system and redefining game and fishing rules and regulations.”
Brewster also served as Democratic chair of both committees in the last two-year legislative session.
