WASHINGTON, DC - Energy and Commerce Committee Republican Leader Greg Walden (R-OR) today issued the following statement after announcing the subcommittee Republican Leaders for the 116th Congress.

Greg Walden. “The American people expect results, and I am confident that the leadership team Republicans are putting forward is ready to deliver.
