James Enos Clyburn (; born July 21, 1940) is an American politician of the Democratic Party serving as House Majority Whip since 2019.
He is a two-time Majority Whip, having previously served in the post from 2007 to 2011 and served as House Assistant Minority Leader from 2011 to 2019.
Currently in his 14th term as a congressman, Clyburn has served as U.S.
Representative for South Carolina's 6th congressional district since 1993.
His congressional district includes most of the majority-black precincts in and around Columbia and Charleston, as well as nearly all of the mostly rural Black Belt within South Carolina.
Clyburn is the current dean of the South Carolina congressional delegation. Clyburn has been the third-ranking Democrat in the House behind Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer since 2007, serving as Majority Whip behind House Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Hoyer during periods of Democratic House control, and as Assistant Minority Leader behind Minority Leader Pelosi and Minority Whip Hoyer during periods of Republican House control.
After the Democrats took control of the House following the 2018 midterm elections, Clyburn was re-elected Majority Whip in January 2019 on the opening of the 116th Congress.
Clyburn remains the number three House Democrat behind Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Hoyer (marking the second time the trio has served in these roles together).
