Rose hires district director in preparation for taking office
Preparing to take office in early January, Democratic U.S. Rep.-elect Max Rose is busy planning an inauguration ceremony, familiarizing himself with the U.S. Capitol, poring over resumes and hiring staffers to work in his two district offices.
Invitations are going out to political players, community leaders and some lucky everyday citizens in the 11th Congressional District to attend an Inauguration Day Ceremony on Saturday Jan. 5 at Staten Island’s Saint George Theater at 1 p.m.
Rose defeated Republican U.S. Rep. Dan Donovan in the Nov. 6 election, becoming the first Democrat to capture the congressional seat in 10 years. He will be part of the new Democratic majority in the House when the 116th Congress goes into session in January.
