Bingman Announces Sen. Ron Justice as Vice Chairman of Senate Appropriations Committee
State Capitol, Oklahoma City – President Pro Tempore Brian
Bingman, R-Sapulpa, announced on Monday that he had chosen Sen.
Ron Justice,
R-Chickasha, as the next Vice Chairman of the Senate Appropriations
Committee. Justice will replace Senator
Clark Jolley,
who was recently named the committee’s Chairman.
"Senator Ron Justice is a perfect fit to serve as the next Vice
Chairman of the Appropriations Committee," Bingman said. "He is an
experienced, thoughtful legislator with deep respect among our
Senate members."
"Past performance is the best indicator of future success. And like
Chairman Jolley, Ron has a solid record of fighting for a smaller,
simpler, smarter approach to funding state government. Tax-payers in
urban and rural Oklahoma alike will be well served by a unified
voice for common sense conservative values."
Senator Justice will begin serving as the Vice Chairman of the
Appropriations Committee effective immediately.
"I am humbled and honored to serve as the next Appropriations
Committee Vice Chairman," Justice said. "Just like our families and
communities watch the bottom line every day, the legislature owes it
to Oklahomans to do the same. I look forward to joining Chairman
Jolley in the next legislative session as we guard this important
public trust with integrity."
