MORRIS COUNTY — Assembly Republican Leader Jon Bramnick announced he has appointed Assemblyman Anthony M. Bucco to the position of Assembly Republican whip. Bucco replaces Scott Rumana, who was confirmed by the state Senate to become a Passaic County Superior Court judge.
“Tony is politically savvy, intelligent, and hard-working,” said Bramnick (R-Union). “He has a proven track record of successful leadership in our caucus and will be an effective advocate to advance our message as whip.”
Previously, Bucco served as the Republican deputy leader since 2012. He has served in the Assembly since 2010, and represents parts of Morris and Somerset counties in the 25th Legislative District.
“I am truly honored that Republican Leader Bramnick has asked me to take on this new role,” said Bucco (R-Morris). “I look forward to continue working with my colleagues to advance Republican solutions that make the state more affordable for taxpayers, encourage more job opportunities in every community, and reform state government.”
Bucco’s office is located at 1040 Route 10 West, First Floor, Randolph, and can be reached by calling (973) 927-2526.
