Ron’s work as an analyst, researching and drafting legislation and preparing members for committee hearings, launched him into the role of executive director of the Northeast Democratic Delegation for the House. There he prepared legislation, testimony, and news releases for lawmakers. In addition to his other duties, Ron staffed committee meetings in Harrisburg and Northeastern Pennsylvania and monitored funding opportunities for delegation members.
