(JTA) — A Jewish woman became the first female to be elected sergeant at arms for the West Virginia state House of Delegates.
Anne Lieberman was sworn in last week.
She is the first female to hold one of the elected positions in the state legislature – doorkeeper, sergeant at arms and House speaker or Senate president, the local ABC affiliate WCHS reported, citing research by the House clerk.
Lieberman, a native of Charleston, formerly served as a legislative analyst for the Senate Education Committee and as an assistant doorkeeper and assistant sergeant of arms in the House.
Lieberman served as the state chair of www.JewsChooseTrump.org.
Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
