About

The U.S. House Committee on Natural Resources or Natural Resources Committee (often referred to as simply Resources) is a Congressional committee of the United States House of Representatives. Originally called the Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs (1951), the name was changed to the Committee on Natural Resources in 1991. Following the Democratic takeover of the House of Representatives in 2006, the name of the committee was changed back to its title used between 1991 and 1995.

Subcommittees

5 subcommittees of the Natural Resources committee. Each row’s tick is the full committee’s own blended position — subcommittee rosters are usually too small for a separate mean to mean much, so there isn’t one here; the dots are the subcommittee’s chair and ranking member.
