HARRISBURG – As the incoming Republican chairman of the House Labor and Industry Committee, Rep. Seth Grove (R-Dover) will unleash the LIGER, Labor and Industry Government Efficiency Roundtable, this coming session. Grove’s LIGER initiative is a series of policy roundtable discussions to be held throughout the session on issues under the committee’s purview and will focus on improving government efficiency, effectiveness and accountability. Grove said, “LIGER will help us identify problems and define solutions to issues to come before the committee. These discussions will include Republican committee members, stakeholders and Pennsylvanians who have been negatively impacted by a bloated bureaucracy to discuss how state government can cut waste, streamline operations and roll back government overreach.” The House Labor and Industry Committee helps to develop legislation relating to workforce development, unemployment and workers’ compensation, minimum wage, prevailing wage, child labor laws, and more. Standing House committees are responsible for vetting and fine-tuning legislation before it goes to the full House of Representatives for consideration.
