With Republicans taking control of the White House, Senate, and House, it is imperative we are in position to move President Trump\u2019s agenda efficiently and thoughtfully so we can quickly restore our nation to greatness,\u201d said House Majority Leader Steve Scalise. \u201cFrom securing our southern border, to unleashing American energy, to fighting to lower Bidenflation, and making our communities safe again, our Committee Chairs are ready to get to work fulfilling the American people\u2019s mandate and enacting President Trump\u2019s America-First agenda. House Republicans are heading into the 119th Congress prepared to address the issues most important to hardworking Americans and fight for meaningful legislative wins. I want to congratulate all of the newly selected Chairs, and I look forward to working with these strong leaders and their Committees to advance President Trump\u2019s priorities and deliver the American people the government they voted for in November.\u201d\n\nAgriculture \u2013 Rep.
