Rep. Paul Gosar has been reinstated to his previous House committees after being kicked off in 2021 for his conduct online.
Gosar, R-Ariz., is rejoining the House Oversight and Accountability and the Natural Resources committees after being stripped of his assignments for briefly posting an anime style video attacking Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.
Republicans last year won control of the House from the Democrats and are now in charge of running committees.
The oversight committee is the House’s primary investigative body over the federal government. Gosar already called for an investigation into the Joint Chiefs of Staff Chair Mark Milley for telling his Chinese counterpart that he would warn him if the U.S. was planning to attack. He also has said that former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s conduct surrounding the Jan. 6, 2021, U.S Capitol riot should be given more scrutiny.
