Senate President Pro Tempore Dave Sokola released the following statement today regarding Senate committee assignments:
“Senator Brown has been reinstated as Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee and as a member of the Capital Improvement Committee. As Pro Tempore, I removed him from these committees in the face of the allegations he faced last year, and I have now reinstated him given his acquittal in court and my belief that the terms of these sanctions have been appropriate.
I want to thank Sen. Kyle Evans Gay and Sen. Marie Pinkney for their time and dedication in filling these roles over the last year. Their service has been exemplary.”
