REP LIEU STATEMENT ON BEING ELECTED TO HOUSE
LEADERSHIP AS A DPCC CO-CHAIR
WASHINGTON - Today,
Congressman Ted. W. Lieu (D-Los Angeles County) issued the following statement
after his Democratic colleagues elected him to House Leadership as a Democratic
Policy and Communications Committee (DPCC) Co-Chair. As DPCC Co-Chair, Rep.
Lieu will help guide messaging strategy for the House Democratic Caucus. Rep
Lieu received the highest amount of votes for DPCC Co-Chair and is the only
Asian American Member and only veteran in House Democratic Leadership.
“Thank you to my colleagues for electing me to House Democratic
Leadership as a DPCC co-chair. I am honored to join David Cicilline, Debbie
Dingell, and Matt Cartwright in shaping Democrats’ bold and inclusive messaging
to move America forward.
Democrats made history in 2018 by winning the largest popular vote
margin in a midterm in recent U.S. history. We’re ushering in the most diverse,
dynamic and enthusiastic caucus we’ve ever had. It’s an exhilarating time to be
in the House and I’m honored to have a leadership role.
Starting in January, the majority House Democratic Caucus will
endeavor to stop any harmful policies of the Trump Administration and
Republicans; work on a bipartisan basis to advance positive legislation to move
our country forward; and execute our oversight responsibilities. I look forward
to collaborating with my Democratic colleagues in the 116th Congress."
