No Member of Congress should now attempt to defend the indefensible, obstruct this investigation, or whitewash what happened that day.

If those responsible are not held accountable, this will remain a cancer on our Constitutional Republic.

We cannot leave the violence of January 6th and its causes uninvestigated.

You held the line. You defended all of us.

I certainly join the Chairman and every Member of this Committee in our commitment to making sure we get to the truth and that those who did this are accountable.

Look, we`re about -- it`s a very serious business. We have something important work to do and I think that`s a great job.

We have something important work to do and I think that`s a great job.

We have important work to do. And I think that`s pretty childish.

The idea that any of this has become politicized is really unworthy of the office that we all hold and unworthy of our republic.

I am absolutely confident that we will have a nonpartisan investigation, that it will look at the facts, that it will go wherever the facts may lead.

There must be an investigation that is nonpartisan, that is sober, that is serious, that gets to the facts wherever they may lead, and in every opportunity, the minority leader has attempted to prevent the American people from…

Today, the speaker objected to two Republican members. She accepted three others, she objected to two. One of whom may well be a material witness to events that led to that day, that led to January 6. The other who disqualified himself by…

At every opportunity, the minority leader has attempted to prevent the American people from understanding what happened, to block this investigation. And the rhetoric around this from the minority leader and from those two members has been…

It was a really remarkable moment, given her family lineage. And you know, what a major force in the Republican Party the Cheney family has been for so many decades.

I think that any person who would be third in line to the presidency must demonstrate a commitment to the constitution and a commitment to the rule of law and Minority Leader McCarthy has not done that.

The rhetoric that we have heard from the Minority Leader is disingenuous. The American people deserve to know what happened at every opportunity. The Minority Leader has attempted to prevent the American people from understanding what…

I think that any person, who would be third, in line to the presidency, must demonstrate a commitment to the Constitution, and a commitment to the rule of law. And Minority Leader McCarthy has not done that.

I agree with what the Speaker has done.

I think that any person who would be third in line to the presidency must demonstrate a commitment to the Constitution and a commitment to the rule of law and Minority Leader McCarthy has not done that.

The American people deserve to know what happened. The people who did this must be held accountable. There must be an investigation that is nonpartisan, that is sober, that is serious, that gets to the facts, wherever they may lead. The…

The idea that anybody would be playing politics with an attack on the United States Capitol is despicable and is disgraceful. And I am absolutely dedicated and committed to making sure that this investigation holds those accountable who…

Resumed his aggressive effort to convince Americans that the election was stolen from him.

'That effing guy, Jim Jordan, that son of a -- ... Get away from me. You effing did this?'

On Thursday, July 1, 2021, I was absent for family medical reasons. Had I been present, I would have voted: Nay on rollcall No. 205, Nay on rollcall No. 206, Yea on rollcall No. 207, and Nay on rollcall No. 208. personal explanation

What happened on January 6 can never happen again. Those who are responsible for the attack need to be held accountable.
