CM James & CW Welch Selected Caucus Leaders

CM James & CW Welch

I am honored to have been selected by my colleagues as Vice-Chair of the Democratic Caucus of Metro Council. My colleagues and I selected Councilman David James as Majority Leader and Caucus Chair. Councilman James was elected to Metro Council in 2010 and in 2012 chaired the Council’s Public Safety Committee where he and I successfully led efforts to tighten scrap metal theft laws. I look forward to working with Councilman James on the issues that face us in the coming year. The Democratic Caucus and Metro Council continue to find realistic solutions to problems and enact programs for a better quality of life for our citizens.
