Quigley Returns to Prestigious House Intelligence Committee

Today, U.S. Representative Mike Quigley (IL-05) was appointed by Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries to serve on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. Quigley previously served on the Committee for eight years, from 2015 through 2022, including during the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and during the first impeachment investigation of Donald Trump.

“The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence serves a vital role, linking the intelligence community to the individuals shaping our laws. I am pleased to be returning to the Committee at a time when our national security is quickly evolving, and our international relationships are more important than ever. I am thankful to Leader Jeffries for the opportunity to return to the panel.

“As a veteran member of this Committee, I look forward to bringing nearly a decade of national security experience to the panel and, as a representative for the third largest city in the nation, a unique understanding of the national security threats we face. This reappointment presents an important opportunity to hold the incoming administration accountable for their decision making on a national and international level.

“My return to the Intelligence Committee will also afford me the opportunity to more effectively serve my constituents in the Chicagoland area. Last year, I successfully fought for additional funding for security in our city during the Democratic National Convention, helping avert any potential risks. I am committed to using my return to the Committee to help protect Chicagoans and Americans across the country.”

Quigley will also continue to serve on the House Appropriations Committee, with positions on the Subcommittees on Transportation, Housing, and Urban Development, Legislative Branch, and National Security and Department of State.
