Rogers to Chair House Appropriations Committee

Rep. Hal Rogers (R-KY) won the endorsement of the House Republican Steering Committee to chair the House Appropriations Committee in the next Congress according to The Hill newspaper. He beat Jerry Lewis (R-CA), the ranking member of the committee, for the top spot. Rep. Lewis would have needed a term-limit waiver to continue on the committee. Rep. Jack Kingston (R-GA) also sought the job, but did not succeed.
