WASHINGTON – As the U.S. Senate convenes for the 112th Congress this week, U.S. Senator Herb Kohl announced plans to immediately introduce several bills related to his priorities for the new session of Congress. Kohl will continue serving on the Appropriations, Judiciary and Banking Committees and will remain Chairman of the Special Committee on Aging; he will also continue chairing the Agriculture Appropriations panel and the Antitrust, Competition Policy and Consumer Rights panel.

“There is much work to be done and I am excited for the new Congress and the opportunity for a fresh start,” Kohl said. “I look forward to working with my colleagues, on both sides of the aisle, to move Wisconsin forward and do what is best for the country.”
