To a nearly empty House of Representatives this afternoon, a House staffer slowly and methodically stripped Rep. Parker Griffith (R-AL) of his committee assignments. Griffith’s switch from the Democratic party to the GOP yesterday meant he lost his Democratically-assigned seats on the Science and Technology, Small Business and Transportation and Infrastructure. Now it’s up to to his new party to assign him new committee seats.
After the jump, the video of the committee stripping from C-SPAN today.
