Democratic Rep. Mark DeSaulnier is set to take over as the top Democrat on the House Ethics Committee, succeeding former Rep. Susan Wild who lost re-election. This information comes from a reliable source familiar with the matter.
The announcement was made by Democrats during a closed-door caucus meeting held on Tuesday morning. The House Ethics Committee, responsible for overseeing the ethical conduct of members of Congress, has been in the spotlight recently due to its investigation into former GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz during the previous Congress.
