Brian Bosma on Government Reform

	Brian Bosma on Government Reform

First to broadcast House proceedings via the web in 2005

In 2010, Representative Bosma was again selected as Speaker of the House. Brian shared his vision for the 117th General Assembly: transparency in government through expanding internet broadcasting of House committees (Speaker Bosma was the first to broadcast House proceedings via the web in 2005); promotion of efficiency in state government by creating the Select Committee on Government Reduction; and a renewed focus on bipartisanship and civility in the House. To demonstrate his commitment to bipartisanship, Speaker Bosma reached across the aisle to appoint two committee chairmen from the minority party for the 2011 session, a historic first.
