CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) — Rep. Cynthia Lummis has been appointed chairman of a U.S. House subcommittee.

She will chair the energy subcommittee under the House Committee on Science, Space and Technology.

Lummis says she looks forward to ensuring that sound science is the basis for discussion on domestic energy production.
