Jim Jordan announces leadership for House Judiciary subcommittees

According to a press release, while Jordan will remain the chair on the committee, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) will be the ranking member of the Judiciary. Raskin, for his part, said, “I am honored that my colleagues have placed their faith in me to lead Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee in the 119th Congress”

The GOP lawmakers chairing the subcommittee are as follows: Rep. Scott Fitzgerald (R-WI) as chairman for the Subcommittee on the Administrative State, Regulatory Reform, and Antitrust; Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) as chairman for the Subcommittee on the Constitution and Limited Government; Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) as chairman for the Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property, Artificial Intelligence, and the Internet; Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) as the chairman for the Subcommittee on Crime and Federal Government Surveillance; Rep. Tom McClintock (R-CA) as the chairman for the Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement; Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ) for the Subcommittee on Oversight.

Biggs will be serving in his position for a second term, and said, "It's an honor to serve once again as the Chairman of the Subcommittee on Crime and Federal Government Surveillance."

"We’ve worked diligently to expose the radical Biden-Harris regime’s weaponization of federal law enforcement agencies against law-abiding Americans and soft-on-crime and illegal alien policies that made our communities more dangerous," he added. "The American people demand change from the inside out, and the Subcommittee is ready to get back to work in January."

The House Judiciary Committee, as well as its various subcommittees, often have more high-profile hearings than others in Congress.
