This is a standard procedural move that the House uses to organize its members into working groups and has already been resolved.

This resolution officially assigns Representative Van Epps to two specific groups in the House of Representatives. These groups, called standing committees, are where most of the work on new laws happens.
Van Epps will now serve on the Committee on Homeland Security. This group focuses on protecting the country from threats, border security, and emergency response.
He will also join the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology. This committee oversees government research, the space program, and energy development.
Committee assignments are a routine part of how Congress organizes itself. These roles allow members to influence specific areas of government policy that matter to their voters.
