Washington, D.C.,
January 7, 2025
Today, Ways and Means Committee Ranking Member Richard E. Neal (D-MA) released the following statement after the House Democratic Steering Committee recommended three members return to the Ways and Means Committee: “Ways and Means Democrats excitedly welcome back Representatives Brendan Boyle (D-PA), Stacey Plaskett (D-VI), and Tom Suozzi (D-NY) for the 119th Congress. Together, we are once again ready to be the first line of defense against the reckless and chaotic Republican agenda. It is with the policy expertise and leadership of our returning members that we will stop Republican threats to our economic recovery in their tracks. The historic progress of the Biden-Harris Administration, which has spurred record job growth, expanded healthcare, and launched a manufacturing boom, is indisputable and with our protection, will continue to be felt by the nation for decades to come. “Our team is now whole, and our committee will stand up for working families, fight billionaire giveaways, and protect the promise of Social Security and Medicare for the American people.” ### |
