Outgoing House Speaker Bill Howell Hospitalized
Word has been received that Virginia’s outgoing House of Delegates Speaker William Howell is in the hospital after undergoing emergency heart surgery Tuesday night in Fredericksburg.
Speaker Howell did not run for reelection, with the end of his term coming next week when the 2018 General Assembly convenes. He has presided over the House for 15 sessions.
All of us at Bearing Drift send our best to Speaker Howell and wishes for a complete recovery.
