Senate pro tem Del Marsh |
Republican Sen. Greg Reed of Jasper is the new majority
leader of the Alabama Senate.
The newly elected Republican members of the Senate met in
Montgomery on Wednesday to back Sen. Del Marsh of Anniston for another term as
the Senate's president pro tem and to elect Reed as majority leader.
He replaces Sen. Jabo Waggoner of Vestavia Hills. Waggoner
said he recommended Reed for the job because he has his hands full as chairman
of the Rules Committee and Confirmations Committee.
Marsh said Waggoner could have had another four-year term as
majority leader if he wanted it, but Waggoner wanted to share his
responsibilities with other senators.
