Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump on Thursday named U.S. Reps. Duncan Hunter and Chris Collins as co-chairs of his campaign's U.S. House Leadership Committee.
Hunter, who serves California's San Diego County, and Collins, who serves New York's 27th congressional district, will lead outreach efforts to their fellow congressmen in support of Trump's bid for the White House.
"Congressman Hunter and Congressman Collins are conservative stalwarts," the billionaire businessman said.
"I am honored to have the support of these two well respected Members of Congress who share my vision of securing our borders, strengthening our military, treating our veterans with the respect and care they deserve and putting Americans first again."
Earlier in the week, Trump announced his campaign will open a Washington, DC-based office to coordinate his campaign's work with the Republican National Committee, Congress, and his convention and delegate operations.
