Yesterday, @ModernizeCmte and @ModComGOP held a hearing about congressional reforms of the past and their effects in the present day. I will support any policy proposal that makes it easier for Congress to be a more effective body and responsive to the needs of our constituents.
The Select Committee has a unique opportunity to improve The People’s House. There is more common ground on many issues than people realize & we are excited to deliver solutions for #US.

The Select Committee on Modernization is tasked with making Congress more responsive to the needs and concerns of the American people.
I look forward to working with Chairman @RepDerekKilmer and Ranking Member @RepTomGraves to elevate Congress to new heights.
I was honored to participate in the first hearing of the new Select Committee on the Modernization of Congress. A number of our colleagues appeared in front of us to share their ideas on the best ways to improve the way the body functions.
More than 30 Members of Congress shared their ideas for how to improve the legislative body during our 1st hearing. We heard from @SpeakerPelosi & @GOPLeader too! There is more common ground on many issues than people realize – we are ready to get to work.
