Mike Pence: “I commend Congressman Chris Smith for his leadership on this issue.”

It’s deeply offensive to me that you could have a fund that could even possibly compensate people who assaulted police officers or vandalized the Capitol on January 6.

I will never minimize what happened on January 6, and I'll always believe, by God's grace, we did our duty that day to the seat of the peaceful transfer of power under the Constitution.

I'm certainly seen evidence that the administration is white washing that day.

Character, integrity to principle, are enormously important in the life of our movement, in the life of our nation.
