"I was one of three Senators who was not in chambers on January 6th."

"One thing that was not lost on me and many people that I have talked to is the difference in both police presence and response on January 6th compared to events from last summer."

"Does this make your job harder? The answer would be so far yes, yes, yes."

"I understand there are a lot of people saying they would like to see a reconstruction of the events of January 6th and how they came to be."
