Chairman Mast Applauds State Department Reforms

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Brian Mast issued the following statement in support of Secretary Rubio's comprehensive reorganization of the State Department that will reverse decades of bloat and advance America's core national interests abroad.

"Warfare and diplomacy in the 21st century are changing every day. Yet, bloat and bureaucracy keep the State Department from responding to those changes," Chairman Mast said. "This reorganization will make the State Department leaner and meaner and ensure every dollar and diplomat puts America First."
