By Katie Lannan, State House News Service
The Legislature's two top Republicans have set their leadership teams for the 2021-2022 term.
Rep. Brad Jones of North Reading and Sen. Bruce Tarr of Gloucester were re-elected as minority leaders at the start of this session. Tarr, who heads a three-man caucus in the 40-seat Senate, has tapped Sens. Ryan Fattman of Sutton and Patrick O'Connor of Weymouth each as assistant minority leaders.
Jones kept his team mostly intact from last session, reappointing Rep. Brad Hill of Ipswich as first assistant minority leader and Reps. Susan Williams Gifford of Wareham and Paul Frost of Auburn as third assistant leaders.
