  • The United States House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis is a bipartisan United States House of Representatives select subcommittee that Speaker Nancy Pelosi has announced will be created to provide congressional oversight of the Trump administration's response to the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. The Select Subcommittee was established under H.Res.935 during the 116th Congress. Pelosi announced on April 2, 2020, that the committee will oversee the $2.2 trillion economic stimulus/rescue legislation (the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act) enacted by Congress. The Act created a $500 billion bailout fund for U.S. industry and is the largest economic emergency legislation in U.S. history. It will be a special investigatory subcommittee under the House Oversight Committee. Pelosi stated in her announcement that the committee will be chaired by House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn, aided by a staff of experts. It will have subpoena power and a $2,000,000 budget. Pelosi charged the committee with preventing waste, profiteering, and price gouging, and seeking to ensure that responses to the pandemic are based on science. She described the committee as a mechanism for an after-action review. The committee's mandate is analogous to that of the Truman Committee in the 1940s, which investigated waste and fraud in defense spending. On April 23, 2020, the House officially voted 212-182 along party lines, to approve the committee's creation. (en)
