House Energy and Commerce Committee
The committee chairman is Fred Upton of Michigan. The Ranking Member is Henry Waxman of California. Joe Barton, who chaired the committee during the 109th Congress and served as ranking member from 2007-2011, will replace John Dingell as chairman emeritus. The committee has 52 members.

Subcommittees To manage the wide variety of issues it encounters, the Committee relies on the front-line work of six subcommittees, one more than during the 111th Congress. During the 111th Congress, then-Chairman Henry Waxman combined the traditionally separate energy and environment subcommittees into a single subcommittee. New Chairman Fred Upton decided to restore them as separate subcommittee's at the start of the 112th Congress.

Redirects and moves needed:
 * Restore United States House Energy Subcommittee on Environment and Hazardous Materials and move to United States House Energy Subcommittee on Environment and Economy. Redirect Environment and Hazardous Materials Subcommittee to new title.

Ethics
Being renamed from Standards of Official Conduct.

The committee has an equal number of members from each party, unlike the rest of the committees, which are constituted with the majority of members and the committee chair coming from the party that controls the House. This even split has limited its power by giving either political party an effective veto over the actions of the committee.

Membership not finalized.

Financial Services
Subcommittees The Financial Services Committee operates with six subcommittees. This is an increase from five subcommittees in the 110th Congress. The former Domestic and International Monetary Policy, Trade, and Technology Subcommitee has been split into two subcommittees.
