Jan. 14, 2011 -- Republican members of the House of Representatives designated to lead committees in the 112th Congress have begun to select which of their fellow lawmakers will serve as subcommittee chairmen. Below is a list of committees that have announced appointments. Due to the shooting in Tucson on Jan. 8, 2011, Congress has postponed official business to honor the victims, and therefore not all committees have had the opportunity to hold organizational meetings to determine subcommittee jurisdiction and seat assignments. As the data becomes available, MAPLight.org will update this post with a list of the subcommittee chairmen and their top ten contributing interest groups.
