About
Nancy Mace represents South Carolina's 1st congressional district and serves as chair of the House Oversight Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation. As subcommittee chair, she shapes the agenda for oversight of federal information technology systems, cybersecurity practices, and government digital modernization efforts. This role gives her significant power to schedule hearings, direct investigations, and advance legislation affecting how federal agencies manage technology and data security.
Mace brings a distinctive military background to her committee work. She made history in 1999 as the first woman to graduate from the Citadel's Corps of Cadets program, where her father served as commandant. Before entering Congress in 2021, she served in the South Carolina House of Representatives from 2018 to 2020. Her committee assignments reflect her focus on national security and government operations, spanning Armed Services, Oversight and Government Reform, Veterans' Affairs, and Intelligence and Special Operations subcommittees.
As chair of the Cybersecurity subcommittee, Mace has positioned herself at the intersection of government efficiency and digital security—areas increasingly central to congressional oversight. Her legislative agenda includes the VAMOSA Act of 2025 and the Accountable Leadership for Veterans Act of 2025, demonstrating her focus on government accountability and veterans' issues. She has sponsored 138 bills overall, reflecting an active legislative profile.
Mace has established herself as a prominent Republican voice on government modernization and cybersecurity. She was the first Republican woman elected to Congress from South Carolina and has been reelected in 2022 and 2024. In August 2025, she announced her candidacy for Governor of South Carolina in 2026, signaling her ambitions beyond her current congressional role.
