    It’s basically the investigative arm of Congress. When you see random people answering questions in committee it’s generally this committee. A good example is the steroid scandal in baseball. They called in all kinds of people to testify to Congress on that.

      Oh ok that makes sense. I could see AOC being a good pick for that as she is very direct and not afraid to call out BS. I think the committee would be most effective composed of a diverse group of representatives both young and old.
