Chair: Rep. Jerry Weller

The jurisdiction of legislative committees has evolved slowly during the past 214 years, but the House Policy Subcommittee on Biotechnology, Telecommunications, and Information Technology has responsibility for emerging issues that cross traditional jurisdictional boundaries. Expanding digital opportunity, reforming government tax and education policy, space exploration, science policy, and health care innovation are among the high-tech matters the Committee oversees to ensure that America remains the world's technology leader.
