Sen. Peter Inverso has just made it official. He is stepping down. He also announced that he is endorsing Bill Baroni for his seat.
Public service is a privilege and an honor carrying with it the commitment to put the public interest before self-interest. I have always let that guide me in fulfilling my legislative responsibilities. I am immensely grateful that the people of my district have placed thier trust and confidence in me and permitted me to represent and serve them in the state Legislature for nearly 16 years. This was not an easy decision for me to make, The increasing demands of leading an outstanding community bank with public ownership into an exciting period of expansion and opportunity, and my desire to devote more time to my wonderful wife and growing family have converged and convinced me that, after nearly a quarter of a century of public service, this is the right decision for my family, my employer and me.
Here is the full statement from Assemblyman Bill Baroni:
I am saddened by Senator Peter Inverso’s retirement. I’ve known Pete Inverso since I was 3 years old, and he continues to serve as my mentor in politics. Senator Inverso leaves behind a legacy of honesty, ethics, good government, and independence. I am ready to continue Senator Inverso’s legacy.
So there you have it.
