The appointment was made as the Senate Appropriations Committee reorganized its subcommittee makeup following the passing of U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on July 11. The new assignments were announced Wednesday by Appropriations Committee Chair Susan Collins (R-Maine). “I undertake this new assignment on the Defense Appropriations Subcommittee with a measure of sadness for my dear colleague Lindsey Graham, but I am also resolved to serve as he did in support of our men and women in uniform,” Hyde-Smith said. “I am proud to follow in the footsteps of our own Senator Thad Cochran, who chaired and served on this subcommittee so well, ensuring that states like Mississippi can contribute ably to our nation’s defense.” Hyde-Smith retains her chairmanship of the Senate Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies Appropriations Subcommittee, as well as her memberships on the subcommittees on: Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies; Energy and Water Development; Homeland Security; and Labor, Health and Human Services, Education and Related Agencies. As part of the reorganization, Hyde-Smith relinquished her membership on the Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Subcommittee.
