Today, U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, chairman of the Committee on Homeland Security, announced the subcommittee chairs for the 114thCongress.
Chairman McCaul: "Today, we face unprecedented challenges to our national security -- from the ever-evolving terror threat from al-Qaeda, its affiliates and ISIS to the growing cyber threat and an insecure border. The security of our citizens depends on our preparedness to meet these challenges. I am honored to announce the new homeland security subcommittee chairmen for the 114th Congress. Each of these individuals are extremely dedicated and I look forward to working with them to ensure DHS is capable of carrying out its core mission of protecting the homeland."
