House Republican Leadership on January 6 Select Committee 7/27/2021

Republican leadership took aim at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ahead of the Select Committee's hearing on the Jan. 6 Capitol riot in Washington, D.C. Republicans including House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Rep. Steve Scalise argued that actions by Pelosi on the day of the insurrection ensured the Capitol Police did not have the resources they needed or assistance from the National Guard to defend the Capitol.
