H appendix c H -American Members’ Committee Assignments (Standing, Joint, Select) in the U.S. House and Senate, 1822–2012

This appendix lists alphabetically all the congressional committees on which Hispanic-American Members served. Several features will help readers track Hispanic membership on committees over time: • In instances where a committee’s name (rather than its primary jurisdictional duties) has changed, a “See also” note refers researchers to prior or latter committee name iterations. These name iterations are listed in chronological order. • In instances where a committee on which a Hispanic Member served was disbanded and its jurisdiction subsumed by another committee, a “Jurisdiction reassigned” note is provided. Not all reassigned jurisdictions are listed. Researchers are referred only to the committees with expanded jurisdictions on which Hispanic Members later served. • In instances where a committee was disbanded and no jurisdictional transfer occurred, only the Congress and date ranges of the committee are provided. • Members’ terms of service on committees reflect the years they served on the committees; the Congress range is provided in a separate column. Because this appendix accounts for Members joining or leaving committees because of deaths, resignations, and special elections, in some instances service dates are not coterminous with Congress dates. • Delegates from the New and Territories did not receive committee assignments until the 1880s. • The closing date for this volume was September 1, 2012.
