State Representative Rick Williams (R-Milledgeville) was recently appointed to serve as a member of the House Majority Caucus deputy whip team. Rep. Williams was appointed to serve on the whip team by House Majority Whip Trey Kelley (R-Cedartown), and his appointment is for the remainder of the 2019-2020 legislative term, which is concurrent with his service as a member of the Georgia House of Representatives.

“I am honored to have been asked to serve in this capacity in the Georgia House of Representatives,” said Rep. Williams. “I look forward to working with my colleagues on House Majority Caucus deputy whip team to serve the people of the great state of Georgia.”

“I am very excited to have Representative Rick Williams join the majority whip team,” said Majority Whip Kelley. “Throughout his time in the House, Rep. Williams has shown himself to be a leader and one of the most trusted members of our caucus. I am confident that he will continue to play a pivotal role in moving our caucus, the House and our state forward.”

Members of the deputy whip team are responsible for monitoring legislation as it moves through both chambers of the General Assembly and helping their fellow House members understand the details of bills and resolutions
