Local State Rep. Shane Hernandez was named House Appropriations Committee chair for the 2019-2020 legislative session by Speaker-elect Lee Chatfield. Hernandez said, “He’s proud and honored to serve Michigan in this important capacity and thanks Speaker-elect Chatfield for his support and confidence,” Hernandez also added, “Residents across the state, including Sanilac and St. Clair counties, are demanding better roads and schools without breaking the bank to deliver them. That will be his mission as colleagues and himself look to move Michigan forward.” Shane Hernandez is also believed to be the Michigan House’s first Hispanic appropriations chair.
