This position is appointed by Democratic Whip Katherine Clark, the number two Democrat in the House of Representatives.\n\n\u201cDemocrats are the party of the middle class. We are the party of more opportunity for all Americans, not the party of billionaires and special interests\u201d said Congressman Carson. \u201cIn this role, I\u2019ll be working with my Democratic colleagues to fight back against the Trump administration\u2019s dangerous policies and get us back to the basics of what American families really want: lower costs, better schools, and higher-paying jobs.\u201d\n\n\u201cRep. Andr\u00e9 Carson is a relentless advocate for the people of Indiana\u2019s 7th District and an invaluable asset to the House Democratic Caucus,\u201d said Democratic Whip Katherine Clark. \u201cAs we fight back against the Republican crusade to steal from everyday Americans and hand tax breaks to billionaires, I\u2019m grateful that Rep. Carson will serve as Deputy Whip for Policy in the 119th Congress. His leadership will be essential to advancing our agenda: making life easier, safer, and more affordable for working families.\u201d\n\nCongressman Carson also was appointed to serve on the following committees and subcommittees:\n\nHouse Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence\n\nRanking Member, Subcommittee on the National Intelligence Enterprise\n\nMember, Subcommittee on the National Security Agency and Cyber\n\nCommittee on Transportation and Infrastructure\n\nMember, Subcommittee on Aviation\n\nMember, Subcommittee on Railroads, Pipelines, and Hazardous Materials\n\nSelect Committee on Strategic Competition Between the US and the Chinese Communist Party", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T23:42:11Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://carson.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressman-carson-named-house-democratic-deputy-whip-policy-0"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.002501230686903, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
