Rep. Andrew Garbarino (R-NY) has been selected as the new chair of the House Homeland Security Committee, succeeding Rep. Mark Green. Garbarino's appointment follows a competitive race among four Republican lawmakers and positions him at the forefront of key national security issues, including immigration and cybersecurity policy.
His leadership is expected to influence the GOP's approach to border security and the renewal of critical cybersecurity legislation. The decision is seen as a win for centrist Republicans and comes as Congress faces major appropriations deadlines.
