Committees and Caucuses

Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler is a member of both the House Armed Services Committee and the House Agriculture Committee.

Missouri’s Fourth Congressional District is proud to be one of our nation’s most military-intensive congressional districts, home to two major military installations, Whiteman Air Force Base and Fort Leonard Wood, and host to the Missouri National Guard Headquarters. Our District is blessed to have them as a part of our community. As a member of the House Armed Services Committee, Congresswoman Hartzler is committed to working hard to ensure that these facilities remain vital components of our national defense.

She is a member of three important House Armed Services subcommittees: The Subcommittee on Tactical Air and Land Forces, the Subcommittee on Readiness, and the Subcommittee on Military Personnel.

All Army and Air Force acquisition programs are dealt with through the Subcommittee on Tactical and Land Forces. What goes on in these meetings is critical to both Fort Leonard Wood and Whiteman Air Force Base. The Subcommittee on Readiness addresses military readiness, training, and logistics as well as military construction, installations, and family housing issues. The Subcommittee on Military Personnel deals with all issues relating to pay, Tricare, and military voting.
