Dear Speaker Vos:
I am writing to notify you that I am appointing Representative Deb Andraca to serve on the Joint Committee on Finance. Representative Andraca’s appointment is to replace Representative Evan Goyke, and will be effective starting today August 16th.
Additionally, I am appointing Representative Ratcliff to serve on the Committee on Energy & Utilities, and Representative Goyke to serve on the Committee on Veteran and Military Affairs. Those appointments are to replace Representative Andraca on those committees.
Lastly, due to Representative Goyke’s departure from the Joint Committee on Finance, Representative McGuire will inherit ranking membership and therefore, replace Rep. Goyke on the Joint Legislative Council Committee.
Thank you very much, and please do not hesitate to let me know if you need any additional information.
Sincerely,
