Lynch has decided to announce his candidacy for full Chairmanship of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform,” said his Communications Director Molly Rose Tarpey. “Congressman Lynch has been a member of the Oversight Committee for 18 years and he currently Chairs the Oversight Subcommittee on National Security.”
“It is my hope to continue the good work of our colleague and friend, Elijah Cummings,” said Rep.
