Congressman John Joyce, M.D. (PA-13), has been appointed as the Chairman of the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. The subcommittee oversees matters related to telecommunications, energy policy, consumer protection, food and drug safety, public health and research, environmental policy, and interstate and foreign commerce.
“It is truly an honor to be named the new Chairman of the Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee, and I look forward to continuing the incredible progress made by Congressman Gary Palmer of Alabama already this Congress,” said Congressman John Joyce, M.D. “As elected Members of Congress, one of our main duties is to conduct oversight and provide transparency for the American people. Our government was formed ‘by the People’ and ‘for the People,’ and ensuring that the American public gets transparency into our government is critical to ensuring the voices of the public remain at the center of our decision making.”
“I’m proud to name Congressman John Joyce, M.D., as Chairman of the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations. As Vice Chairman of the Committee on Energy and Commerce, Dr. Joyce has been a vital member of our team as we work to unleash our nation’s energy, support the rapid innovation of American industry, and deliver results for patients and their caregivers,” said Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Brett Guthrie (KY-02). “Under Dr. Joyce’s leadership, the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations will continue to root out waste, fraud, and abuse while delivering results for the American people.”
