U.S. Rep. Randy Weber (TX-14) announced he will continue to serve on the House Energy and Commerce (E&C) and the Science, Space, and Technology (SST) Committees. Additionally, he has been named chairman of the SST Energy Subcommittee and the vice chairman of the E&C Energy Subcommittee, where the committee focuses on advancing policies to secure America’s energy future and foster innovation.
Weber was also named the vice chair of the House Energy Action Team (HEAT) under the Republican Study Committee, where he’ll champion energy policies that empower domestic producers, leverage an all-of-the-above energy strategy, and restore America’s energy dominance on the global stage.
"It's an honor to continue to serve as a member on the influential Energy and Commerce Committee and to support the growth of our space exploration and energy distribution efforts — both are critical to the future of Southeast Texas," said Weber.
According to Weber, his district is an energy powerhouse with seven ports, seven of America's largest petroleum refineries, three LNG plants, and 60% of the nation's Strategic Petroleum Reserve.
"Texas' 14th Congressional District will provide a crucial voice as I take on these roles," stated Weber. "Our mission is clear: to reverse the damaging policies left behind by the Biden administration and rebuild what has been broken for Southeast Texas and our nation."
“Congressman Weber’s energy expertise and values could not be more critical to the success of the SST Committee,” said Chairman Brian Babin (TX-36). “He’s a great friend, fellow Southeast Texan and staunch ally in the fight to ensure America leads from the front. I’m looking forward to working alongside him this Congress.”
