U.S. Sen. Richard Burr is the GOP's new go-to-guy in the Senate on national parks.

Burr, a Winston-Salem Republican, is the new ranking member on a Senate subcommittee on national parks.

"The national park system plays an important role in North Carolina life, both as an economic resource and a recreational resource," Burr said in a statement. "I look forward to continuing to be an advocate for North Carolina's parks."
