Woodall to Chair Republican Study Committee

(Washington, DC) – Today, U.S. Representative Rob Woodall (GA-07) issued the following statement regarding being selected as incoming Chairman of the Republican Study Committee (RSC), a group of the most conservative Members of the U.S. House of Representatives. Following former Chairman Steve Scalise’s departure to serve as Majority Whip, the RSC has chosen Woodall to serve as Chairman until the regular committee elections later this year. The committee’s leadership will officially transition to Woodall on July 16.

“It is both humbling and exciting to have the opportunity to lead this fantastic group of individuals committed to advancing conservative principles,” said Woodall.

“Under Chairman Scalise’s leadership the RSC has continued championing the ideals we all share, and I am committed to preserving these values. It is an honor to serve in this capacity.”

Woodall represents the Seventh Congressional District of Georgia, which includes the majority of Gwinnett and Forsyth counties.
