Madison, WI-Newly-elected State Representative Chris Taylor (D-Madison) has been appointed to three key legislative committees for the 2011-12 legislative session. Representative Taylor is now a member of the Assembly Committees on Health; Labor and Workforce Development; and Ways and Means.
“I am excited to get to work on these three important committees that address critical issues for my district and for people throughout the state. Many Wisconsinites are struggling to have access to affordable, quality health care. They are experiencing unfair workplace practices because of the rollback of basic workers’ rights while paying their share of the tax burden while wealthier individuals and corporations shirk their responsibilities,” said Taylor. “I welcome the opportunity to be a voice for my constituents on these important committees.”
Representative Taylor was elected to represent the 48th Assembly District in a special election on August 9, 2011. She replaced Joe Parisi who was elected Dane County Executive earlier this year.
“My agenda is to fight for working families and living wage jobs, excellent public schools, affordable and comprehensive health care, the environment, and for many other progressive policies that we need to move Wisconsin forward,” concluded Representative Taylor.
