U. S. Congressman Pat Tiberi (R-OH), Chairman-Designate of the Joint Economic Committee, welcomed the newest members of the Joint Economic Committee, U.S. Senator Rob Portman (OH) and U.S. Representatives Barbara Comstock (VA), Darin LaHood (IL), and Francis Rooney (FL).

                                                          

“I welcome our Committee’s new members and look forward to working together to encourage a better way forward for our nation,” said Tiberi. “I am confident the Joint Economic Committee will play a critical role supporting both the House and Senate to promote pro-growth policies that foster a strong environment to create jobs, boost wages, and allow Americans to keep more of their hard-earned money.”

 

These new members join Republican Senators Mike Lee (UT), Vice Chair-Designate, Tom Cotton (NE), Ted Cruz (TX), Bill Cassidy (LA), and Ben Sasse (AR) and Representatives Erik Paulsen (MN) and David Schweikert (AZ).
