Organization: U.S. Rep. Howard P. "Buck" McKeon
Date: December 11, 2008
McKeon Selected as Education and Labor Committee's Senior Republican for 111th Congress
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Rep. Howard P. "Buck" McKeon (R-CA) was selected by his House Republican colleagues to serve as the Senior Republican on the U.S. House Education and Labor Committee in the 111th Congress, a post he has held since 2007. McKeon has served on the panel since 1993, leading the higher education subcommittee for a decade and serving as the committee's chairman in 2006. Upon his selection as the panel's Senior Republican, McKeon issued the following statement:
    "It has been a privilege and an honor to serve on the Education and Labor Committee throughout my congressional career, and I am grateful for the opportunity to continue to serve in the 111th Congress.
    "The Education and Labor Committee deals with issues that impact Americans in all phases of life, from education and health care to jobs and retirement. And now, with America at an economic and competitive crossroads, this panel is poised to deal with some of the most important issues facing our nation.
    "We have a duty to ensure all Americans have access to high quality education and lifelong learning opportunities, as well as freedom and security in health care, on the job, and in retirement. Republicans are committed to enacting fiscally responsible reforms on behalf of students, workers, and retirees. We stand ready to work on principled reforms to our nation's laws that will benefit American families, workers, and small businesses — and we are equally ready to lead the fight against a radical agenda of government intrusion and special interest givebacks."
