PITTSBURGH — In a virtual seminar with college students at Chatham University, U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney, the Wyoming Republican who bucked her party to investigate the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection and combat former President Donald Trump’s claims of a stolen election, said she’s confident the findings of the House select committee will “be of concern to the vast majority of the American people.”
Cheney, vice chair of the committee investigating last year’s attack on the Capitol in wake of Trump’s loss to Joe Biden, said the committee will recommend legislative action to ensure something similar never happens again — and do it in a way that presents facts.
“We’re going to do our duty in a way that’s not partisan, in a way that presents the facts and in a way that makes legislative proposals,” Cheney said at the Thursday event. “That’s our obligation and responsibility, and I feel very confident that the facts that the committee has learned and will be laying out are facts that will be of concern to the vast majority of the American people.”
