U.S. Representative Jay Obernolte (R - Hesperia) was awarded positions on the
U.S. House of Representatives Committees on Natural Resources, Budget, and
Science, Space and Technology this week, in addition to his leadership role as
the freshman class representative to the House Republican Policy Committee. As
a member of these committees, Congressman Obernolte will be in a unique
position to defend the vast public lands that make up California’s 8th District,
control federal spending, and take on major issues such as technology policy
reform and digital privacy.
“Our
country needs common-sense policies that will support our communities, protect
our liberties, and help our economy to grow,” said Rep.
Obernolte. “These committees provide a unique opportunity to fight for
issues that impact the future of our nation and our lives in the High Desert,
Eastern Sierras and Inland Empire. I look forward to working with my colleagues
to ensure our voices are heard.”
California’s 8th Congressional
District boasts over 7,831 square miles of national park land and sits in close
proximity to the hub of America’s burgeoning space industry. The district’s
vast natural resources form the heart of its economy with countless jobs
relying on industries from mining to tourism.
Representative Jay Obernolte has
demonstrated a passion for standing up for American taxpayers, supporting small
businesses, improving the quality of life for veterans, and defending our
freedoms and our communities. His unique experiences as a business owner, local
mayor and state legislator will help shape major policies tackled by these
committees in the coming years.
