WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Deb Fischer (R-Neb.) today announced her committee assignments for the 118th Congress. Sen. Fischer will be joining the powerful Senate Appropriations Committee, which helps shape the federal government’s spending policies.
“My positions on the Armed Services, Ag, and Commerce Committees have helped secure critical resources for families and communities across Nebraska. Joining the Appropriations Committee will make Nebraska even more of a powerhouse in the Senate.
“This new position will ensure Nebraskans have a stronger voice at the table when it comes to reining in irresponsible spending and fighting President Biden’s radical agenda.
“The people of our great state deserve responsible federal spending that invests in our military, takes care of our veterans, and helps family farmers continue to feed and fuel the world.
“I am committed to using all these committee assignments to continue delivering for Nebraskans every single day,” said Senator Fischer.
Sen. Fischer will continue to serve on the Senate Armed Services Committee, the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee, and the Senate Agriculture Committee. Senator Fischer also retained her membership on the Senate Rules Committee, where she will be Ranking Member.
Subcommittee assignments will be determined by the individual committees and released to the public at a later date.
