Washington 14th District Representative Chris Corry, who earlier this year was elected by his Republican colleagues as assistant floor leader, has also been selected as the assistant ranking Republican on the House Appropriations Committee.   The panel considers fiscal matters for the state, including the biennial operating budget, the supplemental budget, and other bills with large financial impacts. Besides his role on the Appropriations Committee, Corry will serve on the House Consumer Protection and Business Committee, and the newly created House Community and Economic Development Committee.  That group will consider issues relating to community development, community investment programs, and underrepresented communities.  It will also consider issues relating to economic development and economic resiliency, including small business assistance; business financing; international trade; tourism; parks and recreation; telecommunications; and broadband; as well as emergency preparedness, response, and resiliency.
