HARTFORD — Starting his fifth term serving in the General Assembly, State Representative Mike Alberts (R-Woodstock) was recently reappointed to serve as Ranking Member of the General Assembly’s Banks Committee.
Rep. Alberts, a Senior Vice President and Senior Commercial Relationship Manager for Simsbury Bank, was also elected to serve as one of the House Republican Assistant Minority Leaders for the upcoming session starting on January 9th.
“I’m very grateful to be serving the people of Connecticut once again on the Banks committee,” said Alberts. “Connecticut’s economy remains quite fragile. We are fortunate to have a very healthy community banking and credit union system in Connecticut. Those institutions continue to be the source of much-needed commercial and consumer loan credit for small business owners and consumers alike. I look forward to working with the Committee’s Chairs and our Banking Commissioner over the next two years to keep our progress on track.”
The Banks Committee oversees all matters relating to banks, savings banks, bank and trust companies, savings and loan associations, credit unions, the supervision of the sale of securities, fraternal benefit societies and all legislation dealing with secured and unsecured lending.
Rep. Alberts will also continue serving on the Higher Education, and Insurance & Real Estate Committees.
Alberts currently lives in Woodstock with his two children, Zachary, 18, and Cleo, 15, both students at Woodstock Academy.
Alberts represents the 50th General Assembly district towns of Brooklyn, Eastford, Pomfret, Union and Woodstock.
