“I am honored to be appointed to serve as chair of the Regulatory Reform committee,” Zenger said. “I appreciate the opportunity that I have been given to work on regulatory issues that hold our economy back.
“As the long session gets underway, I look forward to working with this bipartisan group of leaders to ensure an even stronger North Carolina,” said Speaker Tim Moore, who was responsible for appointment decisions. “We have a strong group of committee chairs this session, and I am confident that they will continue to propel our state forward and to the top of the pack.”
