Story highlights The Republican National Committee announced Tuesday who would be on its platform committee

Sen. John Barrasso of Wyoming, Gov. Mary Fallin of Oklahoma and Rep. Virginia Foxx of North Carolina will serve

(CNN) The Republican National Committee selected a trio of conservative stalwarts to head up its convention platform committee Tuesday in a move that appears designed to assuage concerns among the far right with presumptive nominee Donald Trump.

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus announced that Sen. John Barrasso, a Wyoming Republican and member of the Senate Republican leadership, would chair the panel writing the party platform and that Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin and Rep. Virginia Foxx of North Carolina would co-chair the group.

"I know they will bring their good judgment and a principled vision for our Party and our country into this role. Writing the platform is a critical task, and as we enter one of the most important elections of our lifetime, our party is eager to lead an American resurgence by standing on our commitment to life, individual liberty, a strong national defense, and an economy that works for all Americans," Priebus said in a statement.

The announcement comes as conservatives within the party have been organizing to prevent against any changes from more moderate factions within the party and amid wide-ranging concerns about whether Trump would look to make any changes.
