6:00pm At the end of the year, the legislature will lose six senators,
Four Republicans and two Democrats.
The Pacific News Center caught up with some of the soon to be former lawmakers
to discuss their future plans. Senator Larry Kasperbauer, who has served
ten years in the legislature, said he plans on spending more time with
his grandchildren and write a book. Kasperbauer said although he will
be leaving this January, supporters should not count him out of the political
world in the future.
Senator Robert Klitzkie who rarely misses a day at the legislature will
also be leaving. Vice speaker Joanne Brown said she never imagined that
she would be in the legislature for 12 years, but feels it's time for
her to move on to new challenges. Democrat Senator BJ Cruz said he plans
to get back into law.
The two other senators you won’t see in the 29th Guam Legislature
are Republican Mike Cruz and Democrat Frank Aguon. Both lawmakers ran
for Lt Governor during the general election. Cruz, who is also a private
medical doctor and a colonel in the Guam Army National Guard, will serve
as Lt. Governor. As for Aguon, he said pending the outcome of the general
election run-off case in the Guam Supreme Court, he has plans to get back
into the private sector.
