Guest will not lead House Homeland Security Committee, remains chair of Ethics Committee
Mississippi Congressman Michael Guest (R-MS 3) will not lead the U.S. House Homeland Security Committee and instead remain the chairman of the House Ethics Committee.
The chairmanship of the Homeland Security Committee opened this month when Tennessee Congressman Mark Green (R) announced his resignation. Guest, the committee's vice ranking member and current chairman of the Border Security and Enforcement Subcommittee, was second in line for the top spot behind Texas Congressman Michael McCaul (R).
McCaul had previously led the committee for six years and was term limited by House Republican rules.
