Rand Paul Elected Ranking Member of Senate Homeland Security Committee
HS Today ^ | Feb 22 | Homeland Security Today

Posted on 02/22/2023 12:57:15 PM PST by RandFan

U.S. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) was elected yesterday as ranking member of the Senate’s Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee (HSGAC).

“The Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee’s mission of oversight and investigations is critical to Congress reasserting itself, and, as Ranking Member, I look forward to continuing the storied history of this committee’s leadership in consequential bipartisan oversight and investigations,” said Dr. Paul. “Given the committee’s duty to conduct oversight over the entire government, I remain hopeful that we will pursue robust and bipartisan investigations into government censorship and the origins of COVID.”

Throughout his time in the Senate, Dr. Paul has been a leading voice for government oversight and accountability. He has a proven track record of exposing waste, fraud, and abuse in government, and working to ensure that taxpayer dollars are being used efficiently and effectively.

Since being elected to the Senate in 2010, Dr. Paul has advocated against government overreach and fought tirelessly to return government to its limited, constitutional scope. He has fought to put a stop to ‘business as usual’ in Washington by exposing government waste through his Waste and Festivus reports.

Rand Paul is good at researching...as demonstrated by his takes on Covid. He’s certainly not afraid to call someone out.

To anyone paying attention, Rand Paul is sharp, has common sense, and is proactive in reducing the size of our government. He’s been busting Fauci’s balls for years on the vax and gain of function issues.
