Johnson expands size of Intelligence panel to give Stefanik spot
- GOP Rep. Elise Stefanik rejoined the House Intelligence Committee on Friday after the panel’s size was increased following approval by Speaker Mike Johnson.
- Johnson expanded the committee size from 25 to 27 members, approved unanimously by the House to resolve Stefanik's prior exclusion and her withdrawn ambassadorship nomination.
- Johnson expanded the House Intelligence Committee and added Representative Steve Cohen of Tennessee, while Stefanik maintained her positions as chair of House Republican Leadership and a senior member of several key committees.
- In April, Stefanik expressed pride in maintaining her role on the House Intelligence Committee and other key committees, emphasizing her commitment to delivering results for her district and supporting President Trump’s agenda.
- This expansion ends an awkward political situation, enabling Stefanik’s return and potentially strengthening GOP influence amid a narrow House majority.
