The House Judiciary Committee, led by new Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.), today announced Republican subcommittee assignments for the new Congress.
The committee’s former chairman, Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.), will chair the subcommittee on crime, terrorism, homeland security and investigations.
Rep. Howard Coble (R-N.C.) will lead the courts, intellectual property and the Internet subcommittee, covering copyright and patent issues. That panel has a battle over modifying royalty rules for Internet radio stations on its plate this year.
Rep. Spencer Bachus (R-Ala.) will chair the antitrust subcommittee.
“I look forward to working with these members to make America more competitive and free and to exercise aggressive oversight over the executive branch,” Goodlatte said in a statement.
