He is presently Attorney General and has 286fFreshmen served as prosecuting attorney. He hopes to work on the House Ways and Means committee, the same as his predessor, Wilbur Mills.

Bryant's legislative packet passed during his two terms in office, and have been co-sponsorship of the Kindergarten bill and raising workmans'-compensation rates. loe Purcell, Lt.
