Collins to serve as ranking Republican of House Judiciary Committee
By Juliegrace Brufke - 11/29/18 05:42 PM EST
Rep. Doug Collins (R-Ga.) edged out Steve Chabot (R-Ohio) to become the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee.
Collins — who serves as vice chairman of the House Republican Conference and has strong relationships with members of the steering committee — will play a key role in defending President Trump as Democrats take back the majority next year.
The committee is expected to be in the spotlight as Democratic lawmakers seek to unleash a slew of investigations into the Trump administration. The panel would handle impeachment proceedings if articles against the president are filed.
Despite having strong competition, Collins — who has developed a strong working relationship the president and top administration officials while working on issues like prison reform — sold members of the steering committee, a voting body largely controlled by Republican leadership, on his legislative and messaging abilities.
