There's been a lot of talk about Republican plans to subject the Obama administration to strict oversight once the new GOP House majority takes office.
Most of the discussion has focused on Rep. Darrell Issa (upper photo), head of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, which is the main panel charged with keeping the administration in line. "I'm going to be doing a lot of investigating," says Issa.
The report says there are two key areas the Republicans plan to keep a close eye on:
1. The Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius' implementation of the new national health care law.
2. The Environmental Protection Agency head Lisa Jackson's work to unilaterally regulate carbon emissions. 
Both of these fall under the oversight of the House Energy and Commerce Committee -- a panel so important that the famed Democratic Rottweiler Rep. Henry Waxman (lower photo) left the Oversight Committee to chair it -- and both will be the subject of extensive oversight next year.
Waxman, a Democrat will no longer chair the House Energy and Commerce Committee after the new House members are seated in January.
