WASHINGTON, Jan. 3 (UPI) -- Centrist Rep. Jane Harman, D-Calif., denied the chair of the House Intelligence Committee, may get an intelligence gavel yet, according to CQ.

The publication, citing unnamed congressional aides, reported this week that Harman is in the running to chair the Homeland Security Subcommittee on Intelligence, Information Sharing and Terrorism Risk Assessment.

That gavel 'is by no means as important as the full committee chairmanship that Harman was denied by (Speaker-elect Rep Nancy) Pelosi, a fellow Californian with whom she has differed both personally and politically,' reported CQ.
