Rep. Ryan gets plumb committee assignment

WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan of Howland was reappointed today to the House Democratic Steering and Policy Committee, a leadership committee tasked with assigning party members to House committees and advising the Democrats on policy.

Ryan, D-13th, has served on the committee since 2006, and his appointment assures he will remain on the appropriations and the budget committees.

“I am proud to once again be appointed to this influential committee tasked with advising the Democratic Party on policy matters and assigning party members to House committees,” Ryan said. “It is a great honor to continue to play a leadership role on Capitol Hill and fight for hard-working families in Ohio and across our nation.”
