U.S. Senator Pat Toomey, R- Pennsylvania, was selected by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, to serve on the Congressional Oversight Committee.

The Congressional Oversight Committee is a five-person panel that was established by the CARES Act. The commission is focused specifically on the economic stabilization efforts of the Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve.

“As a commissioner, my goal will be to protect the taxpayers by ensuring those resources are used in an appropriate, equitable, and pro-growth manner,” Toomey said.
