| Description | Progressive groups focused on foreign policy are pushing House Democratic leadership to ensure the next head of the House Foreign Affairs Committee supports a progressive agenda.
The push comes amid the likely departure of current chair Rep. Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.), who is trailing behind his progressive primary challenger as votes continue to be counted in his electoral district and not expected to make a comeback.
The House Foreign Affairs Committee is considered one of the most influential in the House, charged with oversight of the State Department, foreign policy and international organizations and drafting legislation reflecting U.S. priorities around the globe. |
