Senator Mary Jo White Statement on Senator Raphael J. Musto's
Decision to Retire
Harrisburg - Senator Mary Jo White (R-21), chairman of the Senate
Environmental Resources and Energy Committee, issued the following statement on
the decision of Senator Raphael J. Musto (D-14) to retire at the end of the
2009-2010 legislative session:
"I congratulate Senator Musto on his nearly 28 years of distinguished
service in the state Senate.
In addition to being a friend and true gentleman, Senator Musto has been
a passionate advocate for the environment. His imprint can be found on every
major environmental accomplishment realized over the past three decades,
including the state's landmark recycling, environmental education, Key '93,
brownfields reuse, water resource planning, alternative energy and Growing
Greener acts. None of these initiatives would be in place today without the
guidance and support of Ray Musto.
I look forward to working with Senator Musto throughout the remainder of
this legislative session on other initiatives that will further protect our
natural resources.
His family's well-deserved gain will be the Commonwealth's loss. Our
children and grandchildren will benefit for decades to come from a cleaner
environment thanks in no small part to the work of Ray Musto."
