WASHINGTON, D.C. – Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (MO-08) issued the following statement welcoming the new Republican members to the Committee for the 119th Congress:
“In the 119th Congress, the Ways and Means Committee will continue to lead on delivering for America’s workers, families, farmers, and small businesses. We will advance solutions to provide relief from four years of Bidenomics and grow jobs and wages while lifting more Americans out of poverty. That starts with immediately building on the successes of the 2017 Trump tax cuts to give certainty and relief to American families and small businesses. We will use our trade laws to help American farmers and workers while finding ways to expand access to healthcare in rural America and for our seniors. All of those efforts will benefit from the input and knowledge these new members are bringing to the Committee. I look forward to working with them as we take action to improve the lives of the American people.”
The House Republican Steering Committee recommended the following new members to the Ways and Means Committee for the 119th Congress:
