Rep. Warren Kampf (R-Chester/Montgomery) has been appointed to the House Labor and Industry Committee, as well as the Local Government, Consumer Affairs, and Urban Affairs committees for the 2011-12 legislative session. 

“Now more than ever, we need to free job creators and businesses from over-burdensome regulations and tax policies that stifle, rather than stimulate, growth in our economy and job markets,” Kampf said.  “I will use my position on the Labor Committee to help clear the path for entrepreneurship by reigning in practices that work against job growth.”  

Kampf’s experience as a Tredyffrin Township Supervisor will make him an asset to the Local Government Committee, which reviews bills dealing with the municipal codes by which local governments operate.  “As a former local official, I witnessed firsthand how some state laws, regulations and mandates increase costs to local taxpayers,” said Kampf.  “From the Local Government Committee, I will listen to and work with local officials from across the state to help reduce these burdens and control property taxes.”    

Kampf’s responsibilities on the Urban Affairs Committee will dovetail with his work on the Local Government Committee, as many of the issues being dealt with (including manufactured housing, building codes, urban redevelopment and enterprise zones, and sprawl) have components which are addressed by both committees. 

Kampf will bring to the Consumer Affairs Committee his background as a criminal prosecutor to find ways that better protect the public from con artists and financial scams.
