Rep. Duckworth, 8 Dems named to Armed Services panel
The other freshmen Democrats that will be on the committee
are Reps. Bill Eynart (Ill.), Pete Gallego (Texas), Derek Kilmer (Wash.) and Scott
Peters (Calif.) and Marc Veasey (Texas.).
{mosads}Republicans announced their new Armed Services members last
week.
Armed Services Democrats have not said yet who will take
over the Tactical Air and Land subcommittee from Rep. Silvestre Reyes (D-Texas),
who lost in a primary this year.
Rep. Loretta Sanchez (D-Calif.) is in line to take the panel’s
largest subcommittee, but she told The Hill this week that she hasn’t yet
decided whether she wants to switch over from Strategic Forces.
