House GOP lawmakers have picked Rep. Jim Jordan — one of Trump’s most loyal allies on Capitol Hill — to be the next top Republican on the powerful House Judiciary Committee.
The full Republican conference still needs to approve Jordan and Meadows for the posts, but usually backs the recommendations from the Steering Committee, which includes the top members of GOP leadership — including Jordan’s former rival House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy , whose vote carries the most weight.
Collins is not expected to step down immediately, and leadership has indicated that they would give him time to transition his staff. Jordan will officially start on March 12. Meadows is retiring, however, so the GOP will have to find a another leader for the panel later this year.
