WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Republican Study Committee (RSC) Chairman-elect August Pfluger (TX-11) announced the appointment of Representative Ben Cline (VA-06) as Vice Chairman of the RSC for the 119th Congress.

Representative Cline will be the first RSC Vice Chair, signaling a historic partnership and commitment to strengthening RSC.

The Republican Study Committee, the largest conservative caucus in the House of Representatives, continues to advance conservative policies that strengthen America's national security, economic prosperity, and individual freedoms.

"I am thrilled to announce Congressman Ben Cline as the first Vice Chairman of the Republican Study Committee," said Chairman-elect Pfluger. "As a key member of both the House Judiciary and Appropriations Committees, Ben has been at the forefront of our efforts to secure our border, rein in wasteful spending, and counter the Chinese Communist Party.

"I am honored to serve as the first Vice Chair of the Republican Study Committee,” said Rep. Cline. “I look forward to working alongside RSC Chair, Congressman August Pfluger, and the entire committee to drive a strong conservative agenda that delivers real results for the American people. With a Trump presidency and a Republican-led Senate and House, it’s time to steer our Nation away from the dangerous path set by the Biden Administration. I am committed to ensuring that RSC continues to effectively lead by advancing conservative, common-sense policies that will safeguard Americans, restore fiscal responsibility, and secure our Nation."

Under their combined leadership, the RSC will continue its vital role as the conservative policy engine of the House, developing and championing the Trump Agenda and solutions that put America first. The Pfluger-Cline partnership brings together proven leaders committed to furthering a conservative agenda and advancing policies that benefit hardworking Americans.
