WASHINGTON, D.C.– Congressman Mark Amodei (NV-2) today announced today he will serve as an assistant whip for the House Republican Conference. In this role, Amodei is part of a select team of House Republican Members who work closely with House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy on numerous legislative and floor initiatives to help educate, message, and build consensus on pending legislation.
“Mark’s knowledge of the key issues for Nevada and the Western states makes him a welcome addition to the whip team,” said McCarthy. “I’m glad he’s on board and I look forward to working with him in this new capacity.”
“Building consensus and actually delivering solutions is part of the job I always liked,” said Amodei. “That was the case when I was in the Nevada state legislature and it still applies now that I’m in the U.S. House.”
