Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene issued the following statements after today’s Steering Committee votes assigning her to the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability and the House Committee on Homeland Security for the 118th Congress.

Oversight and Accountability

“One of the key agenda items for the Republican majority in the 118th Congress is oversight. That’s why I’m honored to be selected to serve on what could arguably be the most important committee this Congress, the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability.

We will return the role of the Oversight Committee to investigating waste, fraud, abuse, and mismanagement of the federal government, which is exactly what the American people are fed up with.

Joe Biden, be prepared. We are going to uncover every corrupt business dealing, every foreign entanglement, every abuse of power, and every check cut for The Big Guy.

And it’s not just the Biden Crime Family, the GOP majority will investigate every bit of government being used to abuse the American people. Every three and four letter agency will now have to answer to Republican oversight, not the rubber-stamp of Democrat rule.

I can’t wait to get started and look forward to my assignment being ratified next week by the entire GOP conference.”

Homeland Security

“It will be my honor to serve my constituents and the American People on the House Committee on Homeland Security to focus on the security of the United States.

Our Southern border is being invaded by millions of illegal aliens, criminals, and potential terrorists. Our People are being murdered by Chinese fentanyl flooding in from the cartels. Our Border Patrol and ICE agents have their hands tied and have been turned into a welcoming committee by the Biden administration. Cyber attacks continue on our nation’s people and businesses along with many more threats to our homeland.

It’s time for accountability with Republicans in charge.

We will investigate the Biden administration’s violations of our laws and fund (and defund) programs to defend our border and American sovereignty.

I can’t wait to get started and look forward to my assignment being ratified next week by the entire GOP conference.”
