WASHINGTON—Today, Congressman Jeb Hensarling (R-TX), Chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, released the following statement after taking the Oath of Office to represent the Fifth District of Texas for the 115th Congress:

“I am honored and deeply humbled by the trust that the voters of the Fifth Congressional District of Texas have placed in me to serve as their representative in the 115th Congress. I am committed to working on their behalf every day to solve the many problems and challenges we face.  As a united Congress, working alongside the new Administration, we have the opportunity to reverse the devastating effects of eight years of Obamanomics and to create a dynamic economy that fosters job creation, higher wages, and greater economic liberty for all Americans. Together, we will take our country back from a distant, ruling, Washington elite and return governance to ‘We the People.’”
