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.
His leadership comes as Congress faces critical decisions on renewing cybersecurity laws and shaping immigration policy, especially with the possibility of a second Trump administration. The move is seen as a win for centrist Republicans and has drawn praise from House Speaker Johnson.
Garbarino's chairmanship will give him significant influence over the Department of Homeland Security and related legislative priorities.
