Energy and Commerce Committee Republican Leader Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA) today announced that Sean Brebbia has joined her senior leadership team on the Energy and Commerce Committee as the Chief Counsel of the Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Sean to the team,” said Rodgers. “He has an extensive oversight background and valued expertise, which is critical to our work on Energy and Commerce as Republicans prepare for the next Congress. We have a full agenda to hold President Biden and his administration officials accountable for how they’ve shut down American energy, broken trust at America’s public health agencies, made the fentanyl crisis worse, and increased our dependence on supply chains controlled by the Chinese Communist Party, and much more. Sean will work closely across all our subcommittees to ensure our oversight work informs our policy priorities that will put America on a stronger path to win the future and restore people’s quality of life.”
