A New Gavel: Huizenga Announces Committee Assignments for the 119th Congress

Today, Congressman Bill Huizenga (R-MI) announced his committee assignments for the 119th Congress. In this session of Congress, Huizenga will take on new leadership roles while continuing to serve on both the House Financial Services Committee as well as the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

Huizenga will serve as the Vice-Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee. As Vice-Chair, Huizenga’s robust experience across the committee’s jurisdiction will help Chairman French Hill (R-AR) drive policy initiatives and assist with overall operations of the House Financial Services Committee.

For the first time, Congressman Huizenga will lead a subcommittee on the House Foreign Affairs Committee. Huizenga will chair the Subcommittee on South & Central Asia which geographically includes Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan.

“I look forward to working with Chairman Hill in the 119th Congress to ensure Washington is working to build a more economically secure future for the American people,” said Congressman Bill Huizenga. “I am eager to work with Chairman Mast on the House Foreign Affairs Committee to implement policies that restore accountability and prioritize American interests.”

“Rep. Huizenga enters this Congress with significant experience across the entire jurisdiction of our Committee,” said House Financial Services Chairman French Hill. “Most recently, he was a leader of the Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee and guided the Committee’s response to the ill-conceived Biden-Harris ESG approach. As a longtime Committee member and friend, Huizenga fully understands and is prepared to help drive our Committee’s priorities forward by my side. I look forward to serving this Congress with Bill as my Vice-Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee.”

“I look forward to working closely with Bill as he leads our subcommittee on South and Central Asia,” said House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Brian Mast. “Bill’s experience will be vital in reforming the State Department to ensure that every dollar and every diplomat puts America First.”
