House Financial Services Subcommittee on Housing,
Community Development, and Insurance. Cleaver was selected unanimously by his Democratic colleagues to chair the powerful subcommittee. It is my great honor to be selected by my colleagues as the Chair of the Subcommittee on Housing,

I look forward to working with Chairwoman Waters and my colleagues on the Financial Services Committee to do everything in our power to expand our nation s affordable housing stock, end homelessness in America, and confront the scourge of this pandemic in our communities and insurance market.
