Pelosi has 'full confidence' in Swalwell, as congressman scrutinized over ties to suspected Chinese spy
Swalwell will not be removed from the Intelligence Committee
By Marisa Schultz | Fox News
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has "full confidence" in Rep. Eric Swalwell and his ability to serve on the Intelligence Committee despite a yearlong reporting investigation revealing the California Democrat's ties to a suspected Chinese spy.
Pelosi appointed Swalwell in 2015 to the secretive House Intelligence Committee, which led the impeachment investigation into President Trump. A Pelosi spokesman told Fox News that the speaker will back Swalwell's continued service on the committee, which has access to classified material and oversees activities of the U.S. intelligence community.
“The Speaker has full confidence in Congressman Swalwell’s service in the Congress and on the Intelligence Committee," Pelosi's spokesman Drew Hammill said in a statement to Fox News Wednesday.
