V.I. BUSINESS HAS AN ADDED VOICE IN D.C.

Oct. 10, 2001 – Milton L. Wuischpard Jr., a St. Thomas resident, has been appointed to serve on the Business Advisory Council of the National Republican Congressional Committee. He has received the appointment in recognition of contributions and dedication to the Republican Party.
Mr. Wuischpard will serve the territory of the Virgin Islands and "is expected to play a crucial role in the Party's efforts to involve top business people in the process of government reform," according to a Committee release. "Mr. Wuischpard, who has long supported Republic ideals, particularly debt reduction and tax reform, will be a key member of the Council," the release further states.
The Business Council provides a forum for key local Republicans across the country to meet with the Republican leadership and members of Congress. The Committee's Internet site says that participation includes semiannual policy and political issue meetings with Washington GOP leaders, regional meetings, monthly updates, and toll free "hotline" to the Committee.
