And the number of Dems vs Repubs? And who is the chair? ( i.e., which Dem. gets to decide what the committee considers?)



"Who serves on the Finance Committee?
The Finance Committee is currently comprised of 24 Members – 13 Democrats and 11 Republicans. The ratio of majority to minority Members on the Committee is based on the ratio of majority to minority Members of the Senate. Senators are assigned to specific committees by their party conference. Seniority and regional balance are some of the factors used to determine committee assignments."
