Sen. Daniels to hold three leadership posts in the upcoming Legislature

State Sen. Julie Daniels has been chosen to chair the Senate Judiciary Committee during the 57th Legislature, guiding the panel through consideration of legislation impacting the judicial branch of government and other related issues.

Daniels will also serve as Vice Chair of the Appropriations Subcommittee on Public Safety and Judiciary and will serve as Assistant Majority Whip for the Senate.

“I look forward to the increased responsibility and opportunity to participate more fully in the important work of the Senate in 2019.  I am committed to working with others to develop good policies for our state.  It’s challenging but very rewarding,” said Daniels, R-Bartlesville.  “I appreciate President Pro Tempore-designate Greg Treat asking me to take on these responsibilities.  However, I know it’s only because of the voters of Senate District 29 that I have the honor of serving in the Senate and representing them at the capitol.”

In addition, Daniels will serve on the full Senate Appropriations Committee, the Energy Committee, Health and Human Services and the Rules Committee.

The Senate will hold a one day organizational meeting on January 8 and will reconvene for the 2019 session on February 4.
