A high-ranking member of Congress says U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris will be given one of the most sought-after committee assignments on Capitol Hill.

U.S. Rep. Tom Reynolds, R-N.Y., told a Sarasota crowd at a Republican fund-raiser on Friday night that Harris would get a coveted seat on the Homeland Security Committee. It is a post that Harris, R-Longboat Key, has quietly lobbied to get for months.

The new committee will have primary jurisdiction over the Department of Homeland Security and anti-terrorism policy decisions.

Reynolds is chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, considered one of the top leadership posts in the Republican-controlled Congress.
