"Senator Bomke has
proven himself to be a considerable asset to our caucus, and I know
he will serve as a knowledgeable spokesman for his district on the
transportation committee," Watson said. "I am confident his
experience on this committee will help him lead the Senate
Republicans on transportation issues."
Bomke, who has
served on the committee since 2000, looks forward to continuing his
role as spokesman.
"Transportation is
always a concern in my district, particularly the condition of our
local highways," he said. "I look forward to again working in an
area that impacts the lives of my constituents on a daily basis."
The Transportation
Committee handles legislation affecting the highways, railways and
waterways of Illinois.
