[FEB. 10, 2005]  SPRINGFIELD -- In addition to his duties as minority spokesman for the Senate Transportation Committee, Sen. Larry Bomke, R-Springfield, will also serve on the State Government and Financial Institutions committees. Senate Republican Leader Frank Watson, R-Greenville, announced the appointments early this week.

The State Government Committee considers legislation on a variety of Illinois issues, while the Financial Institutions Committee reviews legislation affecting banks, savings and loans, and credit unions. Both are new appointments for Bomke.

"I am beginning the 94th General Assembly with several new committees, and I am excited for the opportunity to serve my constituents in a different area of state government," Bomke said. "The State Government Committee provides me with a chance to be involved in reviewing policy that affects many different areas of Illinois, and Financial Institutions will allow me to address a wide range of banking issues, from ATM fees to banking laws and regulations."

"These committees both deal with laws that directly impact our lives, and I'm looking forward to tackling the new challenges that I will be presented with."

Sen. Bomke's Springfield office has moved to the fourth floor, Room 413, of the Illinois Statehouse. His phone number, (217) 782-0228, and additional contact information remain the same.
