Abstract:

Both House rules and respective party rules address committee assignments and leadership selection. Several of those rules apply specifically to select committees, and in some cases, are unique to the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. This report identifies House rules, Republican Conference rules, and Democratic Caucus rules that affect the makeup of the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. It will be updated if events warrant.
