Watro Named House Republican Policy Committee Deputy Chair

Dec. 11, 2024

HARRISBURG - Rep. Dane Watro (R-Luzerne/Schuylkill) has been named as a deputy chair with the House Republican Policy Committee for the 2025-26 Legislative Session by its chairman, Rep. David Rowe (R-Snyder/Union/Mifflin/Juniata). In his new capacity as one of five deputy chairs, Watro will focus on public safety.

"The Policy Committee does meaningful work, and I am grateful to Chairman Rowe for appointing me as a deputy chair," said Watro. "I am anxious to get started examining public safety issues and advancing related legislation that impacts Pennsylvania residents and their communities."

The House Republican Policy Committee conducts hearings in Harrisburg and in communities statewide about important issues, gathers testimony and information from stakeholders, and works with other members of the House Republican Caucus to develop policy.

"I look forward to working with colleagues and stakeholders to focus on meaningful, lasting legislative solutions to critical issues like inflation, crime, education, energy and more," added Rowe.

As a deputy chair, Watro will be hosting at least one committee hearing in the 116th Legislative District during the coming year.
