Committee Assignments
In the 116th Congress, Rep. Webster will continue to serve on the House Committee on Natural Resources and House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.
The House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure
The House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure has jurisdiction over all modes of transportation: aviation, maritime and waterborne transportation, highways, bridges, mass transit, and railroads. The Committee also has jurisdiction over other aspects of our national infrastructure, such as clean water and waste water management, the transport of resources by pipeline, flood damage reduction, the management of federally owned real estate and public buildings, the development of economically depressed rural and urban areas, disaster preparedness and response, and hazardous materials transportation. The Committee’s broad oversight portfolio includes many federal agencies, including the Department of Transportation, the U.S. Coast Guard, Amtrak, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the General Services Administration, the Army Corps of Engineers, and others.

- The Subcommittee on Aviation
- The Subcommittee on Highways and Transit
- The Subcommittee on Water Resources and Environment
