French Hill has stepped back as leader of the digital assets, fintech and AI subcommittee to become chair of the full House committee in the 119th Congress.
Bryan Steil, a lawmaker representing Wisconsin’s 1st district in the US House of Representatives, will be the next chair of a digital asset-focused subcommittee in Congress after Representative French Hill.
In a Jan. 9 notice, Hill said the Wisconsin lawmaker would replace him as chair of the Subcommittee on Digital Assets, Financial Technology and Artificial Intelligence in the 119th session of Congress.
The Arkansas representative previously chaired the subcommittee but will take over leadership of the full House Financial Services Committee after the departure of Patrick McHenry, who did not run for reelection in 2024.
