Selected to serve

Representative Ginny Brown-Waite was selected to serve on the powerful House Ways & Means Committee for the 111th session of Congress.
“Our country faces many challenges today, none bigger than the pressing need for health care and entitlement reform,” said Rep. Brown-Waite. “As a member of the Ways and Means Committee, I will work to protect Social Security benefits, find comprehensive solutions to the health care crisis facing our nation, fight to keep taxes low and stimulate job creation. I am excited to join Chairman Rangel, Ranking Member Camp and the other members of the Committee as we tackle the vital issues that affect the daily lives of all Americans.”
As our state senator, Ginny chaired the Florida Senate Health Committee. She also taught college-level health care policy and worked as a health care consultant. With the highest number of Medicare and Social Security recipients in any House district, Ginny comes well prepared to tackle the job before her on the House Ways & Means Committee.
Way to go, Ginny!
