STATEMENT OF REP. CLIFF STEARNS ON THE ENERGY & COMMERCE COMMITTEE CHAIRMANSHIP

Washington, Dec 7, 2010 -

“I thank the Republican Leadership and the members of the Republican Steering Committee for considering me to chair the House Energy & Commerce Committee.  I believe that my background in creating jobs by building my own business, along with my conservative record and experience in chairing a subcommittee, would have made me an effective leader.  We have an ambitious agenda to complete – promoting job growth and increasing economic opportunities.  I look forward to working with Chairman Upton in the new Congress in making the Energy & Commerce Committee a dynamic force for improving our economy and expanding employment.”
