Branscum named vice chair of economic development committee

Representative Josh Branscum of Russell Springs was recently announced as the new vice chair of the Kentucky House’s Economic Development and Workforce Investment Committee.

According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, a committee chair “serves as the parliamentary head of a committee. The chair sets the committee’s agenda, determining when—or in many states, whether—bills will be considered.”

The 2023 Regular Session will convene on Tuesday, January 3rd and legislators will meet for 30 legislative days before adjourning by March 30. Kentuckians can keep up to date with legislative activity by visiting legislature.ky.gov.
