WASHINGTON, D.C. – Ways and Means Committee Republican Leader Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX) today released the following statement as he announced updated subcommittee assignments for the 117th Congress, as well as a new member of the Committee:

“Members of Ways and Means, led by our Subcommittee Leaders, play a crucial role in fighting President Biden’s dangerous tax increases, holding the IRS accountable, getting Americans back to work, selling American goods overseas, making health care affordable, and saving Medicare and Social Security for seniors.

“Each of these deeply talented and qualified Republican leaders are well-positioned to fight for greater opportunities for workers, families, and small business owners across the country.

“Our new Ways and Means roster is already hard at work on policies that will get America’s economy back on the right track.”
