This week, Congresswoman Harriet Hageman voted in favor of H. Res. 1367, establishing the Task Force on the Attempted Assassination of Donald J. Trump. The resolution passed unanimously with a vote of 416-0.
Speaker Mike Johnson and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries will appoint members to the task force, which will be composed of seven Republicans and six Democrats. The panel will have subpoena power and is tasked with delivering a report and potential legislative recommendations by December 13.
Representative Hageman commented, “While the resignation of Secret Service Director Cheatle was a good start – and long overdue – there is much more to investigate. The American people deserve to know what went so wrong that a deranged shooter was able to fire on President Trump. We also need to uncover procedural failures and miscommunications in this attack to eliminate the risk of future assassination attempts. I look forward to a thorough and fact-based process, and to addressing the failures quickly.”
