Rep. Spiros Named Interim Transportation Committee Chair

Rep. John Spiros

Rep. John Spiros (R-Marshfield) was appointed Thursday as interim chairman of the Assembly Committee on Transportation. Spiros replaces former Rep. Keith Ripp (R-Lodi), whom Gov. Scott Walker recently appointed to be the assistant deputy secretary at the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection.

Spiros served in the U.S. Air Force for six years and was vice president of safety and claims management for a transport company before joining the legislature. Spiros also chairs the Assembly Committee on Criminal Justice and Public Safety.
