HOUSE MINORITY LEADER JONES CONGRATULATES REPRESENTATIVE GIFFORD ON PERFECT VOTING RECORD
Gifford Casts 104 Consecutive Roll Call Votes This Year
BOSTON—House Minority Leader Bradley H. Jones, Jr. congratulated State Representative Susan W. Gifford (R-Wareham) today for achieving an impressive voting record so far this legislative session.
The Wareham Republican participated in 104 consecutive roll call votes in the House this year, a 100% voting record, casting votes in favor of a number of reforms relative to reversions for local aid and court reform. Representative Gifford also cast numerous votes challenging the Democratic-led House on a number of issues, including a comprehensive Ethics Reform package, an income tax rollback, a permanent sales tax holiday and a gradual rollback of the state sales tax.
“Susan is an incredibly committed member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives, and an extremely valuable asset to the House Republican Caucus,” said Representative Jones. “The people of the 2nd Plymouth District are fortunate to have Representative Gifford up here on Beacon Hill fighting for them day in and day out.”
“Representing the people of the 2nd Plymouth District means the world to me and is not a task I take lightly,” said Representative Gifford. “I hope my voting record accurately highlights my commitment and dedication to the people in the communities I represent.”
Representative Gifford currently serves as the ranking member of the Joint Committee on Environment, Natural Resources & Agriculture, the Joint Committee on Health Care Financing and the House Committee on Steering, Policy & scheduling. Formal sessions will resume after Labor Day.
