Kamala Harris to keep her spot on Judiciary, Schumer says


By MARIANNE LEVINE 12/11/2018 12:01 PM EST

Sen. Kamala Harris, who drew widespread attention for her questioning of Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearings, will stay on the Senate Judiciary Committee, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Tuesday.

“Good news this morning: @SenKamalaHarris will get to keep her spot on the Judiciary Committee!” Schumer tweeted.

It had been unclear whether the California Democrat, who is weighing a 2020 run, would be able to keep her spot on the Committee since Republicans picked up several seats in the midterm elections.

According to a source familiar with the matter, no Democrats will lose a seat on the committee. Instead, Republicans will add a new seat.
