The Daily Signal is the first to report that the Republican Study Committee has reached a new record high in membership with the addition of two more members.
Reps. Randy Fine and Jimmy Patronis have joined the committee, bringing its membership to 189. The committee, which aims to influence House policy and deliberations, now encompasses 85% of the House Republican Conference as Republicans look to assemble and pass President Trump’s “big, beautiful” reconciliation package.
Fine and Patronis were recently elected in the Florida special elections to replace former Reps. Mike Waltz and Matt Gaetz, respectively. They join more than 20 new or returning members to the Republican Study Committee for the 119th Congress. Prominently returning members include Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, and Rep. Andy Harris, R-Md., chairman of the House Freedom Caucus.
