Former Warren County Lawmaker Appointed to Role in Governor's Office

Governor Beshear has appointed former state lawmaker Roger Thomas of Warren County to be director of his office's legislative services.

Beshear said Thomas has experience and knowledge of the legislative process that's "second to none." He said Thomas' understanding of the General Assembly will be vital to achieve a successful legislative session next year.

Beshear's office says Thomas will retain his position as Executive Director of the Governor's Office of Agricultural Policy. In that role, Thomas serves as CEO of the Kentucky Agricultural Development Board and Executive Director of the Kentucky Agricultural Finance Corporation.

Thomas was the state representative for Warren County's 21st District from 1996 to 2004.
