Major shake-up ahead for retirement committee
Monday, February 14, 2011
By: KEVIN LANDRIGAN, Staff Writer
House Speaker William O’Brien, R-Mont Vernon, will engineer a major shake-up this week in the special committee he named to spearhead cuts in public employee retirement costs, The Lobby has learned.
Deerfield Republican Rep. John Reagan will be replaced as chairman of the committee by Bedford Republican Ken Hawkins.
Publicly, officials will say Reagan’s chairmanship of the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs Committee “put enough on his plate” and that making this change lightens his load.
