Thune unveils Senate GOP committee assignments

Incoming Senate GOP Leader John Thune late Friday night unveiled the Republican conference's committee assignments for next term.

A press release from Thune's office noted the assignments "have been ratified by the Senate Republican Conference and are expected to be ratified by the full Senate early next Congress."

One thing to note: Sen. Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) has an unusually high number of committee assignments in this list, a whopping eight. Per a person familiar with the decisions, that’s because some of his assignments are meant to save space for incoming senators who will backfill Vice President-elect JD Vance (R-Ohio), and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), should he be confirmed as Secretary of State.

Here's who's where:
