Four GOP lawmakers who stalled Kevin McCarthy’s House speakership until he met their demands earned seats for the first time on some of the chamber's powerful committees.
"As a career financial services professional with more than two decades in this industry, I am honored to have the privilege of serving on the House Financial Services Committee this Congress," Donalds said Wednesday in a statement.
Reps. Andrew Clyde, R-Ga., and Michael Cloud, R-Texas, both received spots on the House Appropriations Committee, a committee that Republicans hope to use to put limits on federal spending in the new Congress. A fifth member of the House Freedom Caucus, South Carolina Rep. Ralph Norman, was already on the House Financial Services Committee and will remain on the committee in the new Congress.MCCARTHY SAYS NEW COMMITTEE ON WEAPONIZED GOVERNMENT COULD OVERSEE BIDEN CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS PROBE
