The House Judiciary Committee, under the leadership of Chairman Jim Jordan, has announced the new heads for its various subcommittees for the 119th Congress.
While Jordan will continue to preside over the committee, there have been notable changes in the subcommittee leadership.
According to The Post Millennial, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) will serve as the ranking member of the Judiciary. Raskin expressed his gratitude for the appointment, stating, I am honored that my colleagues have placed their faith in me to lead Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee in the 119th Congress.
The Republican lawmakers who will be chairing the subcommittees include Rep. Scott Fitzgerald (R-WI), who will oversee the Subcommittee on the Administrative State, Regulatory Reform, and Antitrust. Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) will chair the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government, while Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) will head the Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property, Artificial Intelligence, and the Internet. Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) will lead the Subcommittee on Crime and Federal Government Surveillance, with Rep. Tom McClintock (R-CA) taking charge of the Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement. Finally, Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ) will preside over the Subcommittee on Oversight.
Biggs, who will be serving a second term in his position, expressed his honor to serve once again as the Chairman of the Subcommittee on Crime and Federal Government Surveillance. He stated, "Weve worked diligently to expose the radical Biden-Harris regimes weaponization of federal law enforcement agencies against law-abiding Americans and soft-on-crime and illegal alien policies that made our communities more dangerous." He further emphasized that "The American people demand change from the inside out, and the Subcommittee is ready to get back to work in January."
The House Judiciary Committee and its subcommittees are known for conducting high-profile hearings, often more so than other committees in Congress.
