Raw Story: Republican women annoyed GOP Congress won't let them run committees: report [View all]

Last week, it was Black MAGA. This week, it's Republican women. Man, those leopards are just feasting every day it seems.

For the first time since the 114th Republican-led Congress, it appears that there won't be any women leading House committees, Bloomberg Government reported.

Republicans have already named who they intend to take over each committee, but it won't be official until all members are sworn in on Jan. 3. So, Republicans can make changes before then and ensure there is some female representation in the assignments, but doing so would admit they need more diversity, equity and inclusion.

“We’ve never been the party that was about checking boxes or identity politics, but the difference is we have women that are qualified to be chairs, and I don’t know why there wasn’t one who was able to become a chairperson of a committee," she added.
