“Today, I am honored to announce that the Democratic Caucus has approved Rep. Everton Blair to be appointed to the House Committee on Financial Services. Congressman Blair is an accomplished public servant, educator and fighter for equality who will advocate for the financial industry to work on behalf of everyday Americans. The child of Jamaican immigrants and a proud son of Gwinnett County, Rep. Blair knows the promise of the American Dream and the importance of it remaining within reach. Rep. Blair is a committed champion for working families, and will use his role on the critical Financial Services Committee to support first-time homeowners and expand access to affordable housing for the people he is privileged to represent in Georgia’s 13th Congressional District and folks across America. The House Democratic Caucus family is proud to welcome him to the Congress, and we look forward to his distinguished service on behalf of the American people.”
