State Senator Jim Seward has been named to four key senate budget sub-committees which will review the governor's budget proposal and offer recommendations for modifications.

Senator Seward will serve on the education, general government/local assistance, health, and higher education & arts sub-committees.

Seward says the sub-committees are an early step in the budget process and a precursor to joint senate/assembly conference committees which develop a final spending plan in concert with the Governor.
