First term Iowa Congresswoman Ashley Hinson has been appointed to the Appropriations Committee in the U.S. House.
“I feel very excited to have been chosen for this post,” Hinson says. “Most importantly to me, though, it means that Iowans will have a seat at the table during our government spending process.”
Hinson, a Republican from Marion, represents Iowa’s first congressional district. Two former Iowa congressmen spent decades on House Appropriations Committee. Neal Smith, a Democrat from Des Moines, served 36 years on the Appropriations Committee and Tom Latham, a Republican who now lives in Clive, was a member for 20 years.
