Washington, D.C. – Today, Congressman Mark DeSaulnier (CA-10) announced that he has been appointed to serve as the Ranking Member of the House Committee on Ethics for the 119th Congress by Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries.
“I am honored to be named Ranking Member of the House Ethics Committee and grateful to Leader Jeffries for the opportunity to lead this body in our work to increase accountability, transparency, and integrity throughout Congress,” said Congressman DeSaulnier. “As a public servant, I have been shaped by my experience as the son of a superior court judge accused of unethical behavior – which has motivated me to dedicate myself to restoring the public’s trust in Congress. I look forward to bringing this experience and ethos to my leadership on the Committee.”
The House Committee on Ethics is unique among all House committees in that it is a bipartisan committee consisting of 10 Members, five from each of the two national political parties and Chaired by a Member from whichever party is in the majority in the House.
