Rep. Barry Loudermilk, who has led the charge for House Republicans to reexamine the events of Jan. 6, 2021, is slated to continue his probe this Congress under the auspices of Rep. Jim Jordan and the House Judiciary Committee, according to Speaker Mike Johnson.
Johnson announced Wednesday his intent to create a new select subcommittee after requests from Loudermilk for more latitude to carry out his investigation.
“House Republicans are proud of our work so far in exposing the false narratives peddled by the politically motivated January 6 Select Committee during the 117th Congress, but there is still more work to be done,” Johnson said in a statement. “We are establishing this Select Subcommittee to continue our efforts to uncover the full truth that is owed to the American people.”
