House Speaker Steve Crisafulli unveiled his list of which members will chair which committees. These leadership positions will shape the course of Florida government for the next two years.
“As I said in my remarks during Organization Session, one of our goals over the next two years is to continue to strengthen the great brand of Florida,” Crisafulli wrote in a memo to members of the Florida House on Monday. “The brand that marks this House is that every word, action, thought, and deed is all about Florida. I believe the individuals I have appointed to these leadership positions will truly put Floridians first.”

State Rep. Ben Albritton will lead the Agriculture and Natural Resources Appropriations Subcommittee.
State Rep. Erik Fresen will chair the Education Appropriations Subcommittee.
State Rep. Jeanett Nunez will chair the Government Operations Appropriations Subcommittee.
As expected, House Speaker Pro Tempore Matt Hudson will chair the Health Care Appropriations Subcommittee.
