White House Responds To Marjorie Taylor Greene Getting House Oversight Committee Assignment

The GOP's selection of Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Paul Gosar of Arizona to the House Oversight Committee was blasted by the White House on Wednesday, allegedly demonstrating the party's lack of commitment to bipartisan governance and obsession with political theater.

"As we have already stated, the Biden Administration is prepared to cooperate in good faith in order to meet the legitimate oversight requirements of Congress. However, it appears that House Republicans may be setting the stage for unrealistic political stunts with the addition of these members to the Oversight Committee rather than working across party lines for the benefit of Americans "According to The Hill, White House spokesman Ian Sams made the statement.

He stated, "House Republican leaders should explain why they are permitting these people to serve on this Committee and reveal publicly once and for all what secret bargains they made to the extreme MAGA members in order to elect a Speaker."
