About

The United States House Committee on the Judiciary, also called the House Judiciary Committee, is a standing committee of the United States House of Representatives. It is charged with overseeing the administration of justice within the federal courts, federal administrative agencies, and federal law enforcement entities. Because of the legal nature of its oversight, committee members usually have a legal background, but this is not required.

Subcommittees
