“It is a privilege to join my colleagues in welcoming Congressman Kweisi Mfume back to the House of Representatives, and to appoint him to the House Oversight Committee and the Small Business Committee. As a former member of the Small Business Committee, Congressman Mfume’s extensive knowledge and expertise will be invaluable to supporting America’s entrepreneurs, small business owners and consumers during this unprecedented coronavirus crisis. Following in the footsteps of his predecessor, our North Star, Chairman Elijah Cummings, Congressman Mfume will be a powerful voice for transparency and accountability on the Oversight Committee, ensuring that our government continues to work for the public interest, not the special interests.
