This newly-created working group, whose Republican Members were appointed by Speaker Boehner, will focus on expanding House communications technology, enhancing the dialogue between the American people and their elected leaders.

McMorris Rodgers. “Now we need to take our efforts to a higher level. I look forward to working with my colleagues to bring the best available technologies to the House, strengthen the connection between Members and their constituents, and improve the quality of our government.”
