Assemblymember gets plum chair assignment, Business and Professions

Salas previously served as Chairman of the committee during the last legislative year.

“I am thankful that Speaker Rendon has given me the opportunity to continue to lead the policy that governs our business practices,” said Salas. “These issues require thoughtful and intentional leadership as we strive to grow California's economy through government efficiency, oversight and regulatory reform.”

The primary jurisdiction of the Assembly Committee on Business and Professions includes the creation, oversight, and elimination of regulatory entities within the Department of Consumer Affairs, professional licensing, vocational education, building standards, and product labeling.
