Senate Reappoints
Wenger Ag
HARRISBURG (Dauphin Co.)
Sen. Noah Wenger (R-36) has
been reappointed vice chairman of
the state Senate Agriculture and
Rural Affairs Committee and has
retained his seat on the powerful
Appropriations Committee.
Senate President Pro Tempore
Robert C. Jubelirer (R-30), who
assigns committee memberships,
said Wenger’s past leadership on
agriculture issues earned him a
continued leadership role on the
committee.
“From creating the state’s
Farmland Preservation Program to
working to develop the new Nutri
ent Management Program, Sen.
Wenger has been a leader on
issues affecting farmers and a
strong advocate on their behalf,”
Jubelirer said.
Wenger added that he was
pleased that he will also continue
to serve on the Senate Appropria
tions Committee, which handles
all legislation dealing with state

in crafting the multi-billion-dollar
state budget.
“As a fiscal conservative, I like
to have a voice in how taxpayers’
money is spent,” Wenger said. “I
consider the development of the
state budget to be the most impor
tant thing the Legislature does
each year.”
Wenger does not chair a com
mittee because he serves as caucus
secretary for the Senate Republi
cans, a member of the caucus
leadership team. Caucus leaders
are not normally assigned
chairmanships.
However, Wenger has also
been assigned to serve on the
Senate Banking and Insurance
Committee, the Labor and Indus

ance Committee,” Wenger said.
