US EditionSwalwell named top Democrat on new Jan. 6 panel
Rep. Eric Swalwell will lead Democrats on the new January 6 subcommittee tasked with investigating the Capitol riot and countering false narratives from the previous committee.
- On Monday, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries named Representative Eric Swalwell as the top Democrat on the new January 6 subcommittee investigating the Capitol attack.
- The move follows the 2021 Select Committee's disbanding by House Republicans, with Jeffries saying the new subcommittee aims to expose 'false narratives' and counter Republican 'whitewashing'.
- Jeffries also announced Democratic picks including Representatives Jasmine Crockett and Jared Moskowitz to join Swalwell, Ranking Member Jamie Raskin serving ex officio, and Representative Barry Loudermilk chairing the eight-member panel under the House Judiciary Committee, which must report by the end of 2026.
- House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries warned of a partisan fight and said, 'Instead of lowering costs for everyday Americans, House Republicans are once again trying to rewrite history and corrupt our electoral system,' while House Speaker Mike Johnson has final approval over membership.
- Raskin emphasized that Democrats will highlight the Capitol officers' plaque, criminal records of rioters, and educate about political extremism's dangers.
