TheUnited States House Committee on Foreign Affairs, also known as theHouse Foreign Affairs Committee, is astanding committee of theU.S. House of Representatives with jurisdiction over bills and investigations concerning theforeign affairs of theUnited States.[1] Since 2025, the chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee has beenBrian Mast of Florida.

The committee has a broad mandate to oversee legislation regarding the impact of national security developments on foreign policy;war powers, treaties, executive agreements, and military deployments abroad; foreign assistance; arms control; international economic policy; and other matters.[1] Many of its responsibilities are delegated to one of six standing subcommittees, which have jurisdiction over issues related to their respective region in the world. The committee also oversees theU.S. Department of State, American embassies and diplomats, and theU.S. Agency for International Development.

During two separate periods, 1975 to 1978 and 1995 to 2007, the Foreign Affairs Committee was renamed theCommittee on International Relations;[2] its duties and jurisdiction remained unchanged.

Its counterpart in the Senate is theCommittee on Foreign Relations.

Subcommittees

[edit]

Whereas until the 118th Congress, subcommittees tended to combine jurisdiction over particular regions of the globe with jurisdiction over broader policy areas (e.g. terrorism or energy policy), in the 118th Congress, the subcommittees were reconfigured to strictly focus on geographical areas, with the exception of global issues and international organizations which received their own subcommittee.
