JEFFERSON CITY — Recently, Sen. Jamilah Nasheed, D-St. Louis, appointed her Legislative Director, Jason Groce, as her newest chief of staff.  Mr. Groce has served as her legislative director since her move from the House to the Senate.

“I am excited that Jason will continue to work in our office,” said Sen. Nasheed. “Without a doubt, he has become an integral part of the everyday processes of this office. He has worked with many of the departments and committees in this building, cultivating important relationships and partnerships, as well as keeping this office current.”

Priceless as an office-manager, Jason continues to improve his education, working toward his doctorate in public policy

“I am honored to continue working for the 5th District and for Sen. Nasheed, as she stands as the voice for the voiceless. With the General Assembly poised to begin the 2015 legislative session on Jan. 7, 2015, I look forward to lively debate on beneficial bills and necessary measures,” said Mr. Groce.
