President-elect Donald Trump named U.S. Reps. Lou Barletta and Tom Marino to his transition team executive committee Friday.

Dubbed Thunder and Lightning by Trump at his campaign appearances, Barletta and Marino, who both won fourth terms in the election Tuesday, endorsed the president-elect early on when many other Republicans wouldn't.In a statement, Barletta, R-11, Hazleton, thanked Trump for showing confidence in him and said he accepted the job "with humility and the resolve to perform to the best of my abilities.""It is a great honor to be asked by the next president of the United States to be part of the team that will help put together the new administration to take office in just two months," Barletta said. "As I said many times during the campaign, I have seen the 'Board Room Donald Trump' when I sat in meetings with him."In those sessions, he always sought the input of those around him and listened to their opinions and ideas. I anticipate that he will expect similar counsel from his transition team."Efforts to obtain comment from Marino, R-10, Lycoming Twp., were unsuccessful.The other executive committee members are Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tennessee; Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi; Rep. Chris Collins, R-New York; Jared Kushner; Rebekah Mercer; Steven Mnuchin; Rep. Devin Nunes, R-California; Anthony Scaramucci; Peter Thiel; Donald Trump Jr.; Eric Trump; Ivanka Trump, national Republican chairman Reince Priebus; and Trump campaign chief executive officer Stephen K. Bannon.
