“It’s an honor to return as Chairman of the House Appropriations Homeland Security Subcommittee,” said Rep. Mark Amodei. “I want to thank Chairman Tom Cole for entrusting me with the responsibility of leading this subcommittee as we work to find a path forward in addressing the ongoing border crisis.
“Under the Biden Administration, every community has felt the consequences of the unchecked surge in illegal immigration. I look forward to working alongside Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, Border Czar Tom Homan, and other key local, state, and federal partners to provide the resources needed to swiftly and effectively fulfill the promises made by the incoming administration.
“We remain committed to securing our borders, restoring order to our immigration system, and eliminating the violence and drug trafficking that have infiltrated and devastated our communities. This subcommittee holds significant power to improve the lives of all Americans, and we will not rest until confidence in our nation's safety and security is fully restored.”
“Congressman Amodei brings over a decade’s worth of experience on the House Appropriations Committee and has consistently demonstrated strong leadership grounded in common-sense, conservative values,” said Appropriations Committee Chairman Tom Cole. “Last year, I appointed him Chairman of the Homeland Security Subcommittee, where he successfully passed the FY25 Homeland Security bill out of committee and on the House floor. With significant focus on the next 100 days, I am confident in his ability to deliver for the American people, who have made it clear we must act now to secure our borders and restore national security.”
In addition to serving as Chairman of the Homeland Security Subcommittee, Congressman Mark Amodei will also serve as a member on the Financial Services and General Government Subcommittee and the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Subcommittee.
