House Speaker Chris Welch (D-Hillside) has a new message for his caucus this year: play the infinite game.  

Welch gives his caucus a new book each session that is designed to impart a theme for members to follow for the spring. The books are often on leadership topics and this year it’s “The Infinite Game” by Simon Sinek.
