Washington, DC--May 19, 2021....Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) released the below statement regarding today's vote to establish a national commission to investigate the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol. He supported the bill:

"The American people deserve to know the truth behind the events of January 6th. Many unanswered questions remain--not the least of which are decisions out of the Speaker's office regarding actionable intelligence apparently ignored prior to the event. We need those answers. I believe the structure, as designed by Representatives John Katko and Bennie Thompson, is fair, transparent, and affords no side an advantage. The insurrection was a black eye on America, and every effort must be made to ensure an event like this never happens again."

Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) has represented Arkansas's Third Congressional District since 2011. He is a member of the House Appropriations Committee.
