Lofgren Slams House GOP Attempt to Distort January 6th Attacks

"Back when I was a member of the bipartisan J6 Committee, only a handful of House Republicans seemed to have any interest in uncovering the facts of the January 6th attack or seeking accountability for those who incited the insurrection," Rep. Lofgren said. "Now, many of those same Republicans seem very eager to establish this new select subcommittee. What that tells me is that this subcommittee is not going to be seeking answers, but they will be seeking political retribution and downplaying the events of that terrible day."

"Speaker Johnson won't even hang a plaque in the Capitol to honor our law enforcement officers who saved our lives and our democracy. Suddenly he's taking an interest in January 6th? I'm not buying it, and I will push back on anybody who tries to distort the facts of the J6 insurrection," Rep. Lofgren said.
