  • Mcconnell Announces Senate Republican Committee Assignments for the 117Th Congress
    For Immediate Release, Wednesday, February 3, 2021 Contacts: David Popp, Doug Andres Robert Steurer, Stephanie Penn McConnell Announces Senate Republican Committee Assignments for the 117th Congress Praises Senators Crapo and Tim Scott for their work on the Committee on Committees WASHINGTON, D.C. – Following the 50-50 power-sharing agreement finalized earlier today, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced the Senate Republican Conference Committee Assignments for the 117th Congress. Leader McConnell once again selected Senator Mike Crapo (R-ID) to chair the Senate Republicans’ Committee on Committees, the panel responsible for committee assignments for the 117th Congress. This is the ninth consecutive Congress in which Senate leadership has asked Crapo to lead this important task among Senate Republicans. Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) assisted in the committee selection process as he did in the previous three Congresses. “I want to thank Mike and Tim for their work. They have both earned the trust of our colleagues in the Republican Conference by effectively leading these important negotiations in years past and this year was no different. Their trust and experience was especially important as we enter a power-sharing agreement with Democrats and prepare for equal representation on committees,” McConnell said. “I am very grateful for their work.” “I appreciate Leader McConnell’s continued trust in having me lead the important work of the Committee on Committees,” said Senator Crapo. “Americans elected an evenly-split Senate, and working together to achieve policy solutions will be critical in continuing to advance meaningful legislation impacting all Americans. Before the COVID-19 pandemic hit our nation, our economy was the strongest it has ever been.

  • Ranking Member John Barrasso
    Senate Committee Musical Chairs August 15, 2018 Key Retiring Committee Seniority over Sitting Chair/Ranking Member Viewed as Seat Republicans Will Most Likely Retain Viewed as Potentially At Risk Republican Seat Viewed as Republican Seat at Risk Viewed as Seat Democrats Will Most Likely Retain Viewed as Potentially At Risk Democratic Seat Viewed as Democratic Seat at Risk Notes • The Senate Republican leader is not term-limited; Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will likely remain majority leader. The only member of Senate GOP leadership who is currently term-limited is Republican Whip John Cornyn (R-TX). • Republicans have term limits of six years as chairman and six years as ranking member. Republican members can only use seniority to bump sitting chairs/ranking members when the control of the Senate switches parties. • Committee leadership for the Senate Aging; Agriculture; Appropriations; Banking; Environment and Public Works (EPW); Health Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP); Indian Affairs; Intelligence; Rules; and Veterans Affairs Committees are unlikely to change. Notes • Current Armed Services Committee (SASC) Chairman John McCain (R-AZ) continues to receive treatment for brain cancer in Arizona. Senator James Inhofe (R-OK) has served as acting chairman and is likely to continue to do so in Senator McCain’s absence. If Republicans lose control of the Senate, Senator McCain would lose his top spot on the committee because he already has six years as ranking member. • In the unlikely scenario that Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) does not take over the Finance Committee, Senator Mike Crapo (R-ID), who currently serves as Chairman of the Banking Committee, could take over the Finance Committee.

  • Federal Privacy Law Efforts Move Forward in Congress −
    NEWSLETTER Federal Privacy Law Efforts Move Forward in Congress − October 2020 Authors Privacy in Focus® − Megan L. Brown Partner As fall has arrived, so has a flurry of privacy activity on Capitol Hill. 202.719.7579 Though this Congress is highly unlikely to pass any privacy legislation [email protected] before the end of the Term, the latest developments reflect efforts by Duane C. Pozza Partner key Senators to find areas of agreement and establish the framework 202.719.4533 for federal privacy legislation to be considered in the next Congress. [email protected] Notably, the Chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee and other Kathleen E.

While Senate Democrats have offered proposals that would go further, the Senate Commerce Practice Areas − Committee held a hearing on September 23 that was aimed at Privacy, Cyber & Data Governance attempting to find common ground for legislation, including by hearing testimony from a bipartisan group of former Federal Trade Commissioners—including three former Chairs—who were broadly supportive of the proposed legislation. Important differences remain, but given the repeated calls for a federal privacy law from a diverse group of stakeholders and the pressure for a federal solution in light of individual state privacy efforts, companies should pay close attention to federal proposals that increasingly appear to mark a baseline for a federal privacy law. Here are the latest developments.

  • December 4, 2020 the Honorable Mitch Mcconnell the Honorable
    December 4, 2020 The Honorable Mitch McConnell The Honorable Charles Schumer Majority Leader Minority Leader United States Senate United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 Dear Leaders McConnell and Schumer: We write to express our support for addressing upcoming physician payment cuts in ongoing legislative negotiations. We believe these cuts will further strain our health care system, which is already stressed by the COVID-19 pandemic, and jeopardize patient access to medically necessary services over the long-term. On December 1, 2020, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services finalized the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule for 2021. The fee schedule includes several positive attributes, including improvements for maternity care and much-needed payment increases for physicians delivering primary and other essential outpatient and office-based care to some of our nation’s most vulnerable patients. These changes should take effect on January 1, 2021, as planned. However, a statutory budget neutrality rule requires that any increases in Medicare payments for these office visits, also known as evaluation and management (E/M) services, must be offset by corresponding decreases. As a result, many practitioners including surgeons, specialists, therapists and others face substantial cuts beginning on January 1, 2021, if Congress does not take action to provide relief. Health care professionals across the spectrum are reeling from the effects of the COVID-19 emergency as they continue to serve patients during this global pandemic. The payment cuts finalized by CMS would pose a threat to providers and their patients under any circumstances, but during a pandemic the impact is even more profound.

  • August 19, 2021 the Honorable Merrick Garland Attorney General
    August 19, 2021 The Honorable Merrick Garland Attorney General Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20530-0001 Dear Attorney General Garland: We write to request an update on the status of Special Counsel John Durham’s inquiry into the Crossfire Hurricane Investigation. Two years ago, your predecessor appointed United States Attorney John Durham to conduct a review of the origins of the FBI’s investigation into Russian collusion in the 2016 United States presidential election. Mr. Durham was later elevated to special counsel in October 2020 so he could continue his work with greater investigatory authority and independence. The Special Counsel’s ongoing work is important to many Americans who were disturbed that government agents subverted lawful process to conduct inappropriate surveillance for political purposes. The truth pursued by this investigation is necessary to ensure transparency in our intelligence agencies and restore faith in our civil liberties. Thus, it is essential that the Special Counsel’s ongoing review should be allowed to continue unimpeded and without undue limitations. To that end, we ask that you provide an update on the status of Special Counsel Durham’s inquiry and that the investigation’s report be made available to the public upon completion. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, Marsha Blackburn Mitch McConnell United States Senator United States Senator Pat Toomey Rick Scott United States Senator United States Senator Bill Hagerty Rand Paul United States Senator

    March 24, 2021 The Honorable Maria Cantwell The Honorable Roger Wicker Chair Ranking Member Committee on Commerce, Science, and Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation Transportation United States Senate United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 Dear Chair Cantwell and Ranking Member Wicker: In anticipation of the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation hearing entitled “Driving the Road to Recovery: Rebuilding America’s Transportation Infrastructure,” the Intelligent Transportation Society of America (ITS America) writes to express our strong belief that the integration of technology is key as we build for the future. Our nation is on the cusp of great opportunity in how we define our 21st-century transportation system, one that can provide greener communities, increased opportunity and equity, and safer streets for all Americans. Technologies including connected, automated, shared, on-demand, and electrified transportation and infrastructure will define the way people, goods, services, and information move, reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector, and ensure that the United States continues its leadership in the technology-driven global economy. Over the years since Congress passed the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, automated and connected vehicle technologies have advanced, the collection and use of big data have become an increasingly valuable tool for decision-makers, electrification of vehicles of every type from human scale to large scale continues, Mobility on Demand services are transforming how we get around, and technology is increasingly crucial to addressing inequities in access to transportation. To lead the 21st-century technology-driven global economy, Congress will need to invest in digital infrastructure and rebuild and modernize our existing physical infrastructure.
