Steve Stivers (R-OH) today announced he was selected to serve on the House Committee on Rules in the 114th Congress. Additionally, Stivers will continue to serve on the House Financial Services Committee.“I appreciate the opportunity to be a Member of the Rules Committee and look forward to working with Chairman Sessions to shape American policy in the next Congress,” Stivers said. The Committee on Rules was created on April 2, 1789, making it one of the oldest standing House committees. Historically, the committee is often known as “The Speaker’s Committee” because it was chaired by the Speaker up until 1910 and is the means through which the Speaker of the House manages the House Floor. The Committee on Rules is charged with determining which bills reach the House Floor for a vote. The committee also determines how long and under what rules the full body of the House will debate each bill. “As a fellow Eagle Scout and proud American, I am honored to have Congressman Steve Stivers serve on the Rules Committee for the 114th Congress. Congressman Stivers has bravely served our country for 29 years in the Army National Guard, having received the Bronze Star for his exceptional leadership and accomplishments during his time overseas. As a small businessman, Congressman Stivers brings a vast amount of experience to the Rules Committee, and I look forward to the work we will accomplish together,” said the Committee on Rules Chairman, Pete Sessions. Prior to serving in Congress, Stivers founded a small business focused on financial services. He also served in the Ohio Senate and before that worked in the private sector for the Ohio Company and Bank One, where he focused on encouraging economic development and job creation. A career soldier, Stivers has served 29 years in the Ohio Army National Guard and currently holds the rank of Colonel. He served the United States overseas during Operation Iraqi Freedom in Kuwait, Iraq, Qatar and Djibouti where he led 400 soldiers and contractors and is proud that each and every one returned home safely to the United States. Stivers received both his bachelor’s degree and his MBA from The Ohio State University and resides in Columbus with his wife, Karen, and children, Sarah and Sam. -30- | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
