“I will continue to bring the voice of the residents of the 63rd Assembly District for the next two years,” explained Case. “I look forward to working with my legislative colleagues to reverse the negative economic trends that have plagued the state for years and to prioritize spending in order ensure adequate resources are available for the delivery of state programs and services.”
Rep. Case has been assigned by House Republican leadership to serve as the Ranking Member of the legislature’s Human Services Committee. Rep.

Additionally, Rep. Case has been re-assigned to serve on the legislature’s Appropriations and Internship Committees.
