Chairman Jordan said, “Rep. Cline will bring years of Judiciary Committee experience to the Subcommittee on Responsiveness and Accountability to Oversight. We have important work to do, and Mr. Cline will play a critical role in accomplishing our goals this Congress.”

Congressman Ben Cline represents the Sixth Congressional District of Virginia. He previously was an attorney in private practice and served both as an assistant prosecutor and Member of the Virginia House of Delegates. Cline and his wife, Elizabeth, live in Botetourt County with their two children.
