Today, Congressman William Timmons (SC-04) announced Heather Smith will take over the role of Chief of Staff as Tim Cummings departs Capitol Hill for a new role in the Trump administration.

“Tim has been an invaluable leader and trusted advisor during his time here,” said Congressman Timmons. “His dedication and expertise have played a critical role in advancing our mission, and I am confident he will bring the same excellence to his new role in President Trump’s administration."
