Electing Members to certain standing committees of the House of Representatives.

Key Points

• The House of Representatives officially chose which members will serve on four major committees. These groups focus on farming, foreign policy, natural resources, and science and technology.
• Being on a committee is how members of Congress do most of their work. They use these positions to write new laws, change existing ones, and oversee how government agencies are spending money.
• This action is a normal part of starting a new term in Congress. It makes sure that every committee has the right number of people to handle the many tasks they are given each year.
