Those who are trapped are often cash-strapped hardworking Americans and college students who are struggling to pay their bills.
America cannot afford to repeat the events of that day ever again, so we need to be clear and honest about the connections between militia extremism, white supremacists, domestic violent extremism, and the events of January 6.
As Members of Congress and as Americans, we cannot afford to ignore the rising threat of militia extremism.
Thank you for calling this important hearing and for partnering with me on this joint investigation.
