Today, Senate Majority Leader Jack Whitver, R-Ankeny, released the committee assignments for Senate Republicans for the 89th General Assembly. Senator Mariannette Miller-Meeks, R-Ottumwa, was elected to US Congress to represent Iowa’s Second Congressional District and Senator Zach Nunn, R-Altoona, will remain on military duty through the 2021 legislative session.
“Senate Republicans have focused on pro-growth and pro-jobs legislation since we regained the majority in 2016,” said Whitver. “Those goals remain for another session and these committees will develop the policies to implement those goals. I’m very proud of our caucus and I am eager to work with them again this session.”
