Statement

In accordance with House Rule XI, clause 3, and Committee Rules 10(a)(2) and 18(e), the Committee unanimously voted to re-authorize an Investigative Subcommittee for the 119th Congress to review allegations involving Representative Henry Cuellar. The Honorable Ben Cline will serve as Chair of the Investigative Subcommittee and the Honorable Glenn Ivey will serve as the Ranking Member. The other two members of the Investigative Subcommittee are the Honorable Julie Fedorchak and the Honorable Madeleine Dean. The Committee is aware of the risks associated with dual investigations and is in communication with the Department of Justice to mitigate the potential risks while still meeting the Committee’s obligations to safeguard the integrity of the House. The Committee notes that the mere fact of an investigation into these allegations does not itself indicate that any violation has occurred. No other public comment will be made on this matter except in accordance with Committee rules.
