Elects Ms. Mejia to Homeland Security Committee.
U.S. House of Representatives appoints Ms. Mejia.
Passed House, final approval is internal.
This resolution officially elects Ms. Mejia to the House Committee on Homeland Security, placing her immediately after Mr. Walkinshaw in rank. House Resolutions typically address internal House matters, so once passed by the House, this assignment is final and does not require further approval.
Introduced Apr 21, 2026
This resolution has already passed a vote in the House of Representatives on April 21, 2026. For a House Resolution concerning internal committee assignments, this is typically the final step. It does not need to pass the Senate or be signed by the President to take effect.
While this bill doesn't directly change laws for individuals, it shifts who contributes to important policy discussions. Having Ms. Mejia on the Homeland Security Committee means she will now help shape legislation and conduct oversight related to national security, immigration, and emergency preparedness. Her new role could influence the direction of these policies.
