The Grafton Republican
will join fellow legislators on the committee, led by Chairman Christopher
Markey and Vice Chairman Daniel Cullinane. It is the duty of the committee on
Ethics to consider all violations of rules and all questions of conduct of
Representatives, report any recommendations relative to it, and recommend any
changes in the rules which tend to facilitate the business of the House.
Legislative Committees
allow members to focus on specific issues coming before the Legislature and
preside over hearings regarding legislation. Members of the Minority Party in
the House of Representatives receive their committee assignments for House and
Joint committees from the House Minority Leader. Members of the Majority Party
receive their assignments from the Speaker of the House.
“Rep. Muradian has done
a tremendous job representing the residents of the 9th Worcester District while
serving on a number of important legislative committees,” said House Minority
Leader Bradley H. Jones, Jr. (R-North Reading). “Now more than ever, it is
imperative that we have individuals with strong character on key committees. I
am confident David will bring the same sense of hard work and dedication to his
new role as a member of the House Ethics Committee.”
Muradian said, “I am
honored to have been appointed to the House Committee on Ethics by
Representative Jones. I look forward to working with my colleagues and ensuring
the House of Representatives operates with an effective code of conduct.”
Muradian also serves on
the Joint Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security, the Joint Committee
on Elder Affairs, and the Joint Committee on Municipalities and Regional
Government.
