Cheney rejects report of a dispute among Jan. 6 committee on criminal referral for Trump [View all]
Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) on Sunday rejected a report that there is a dispute among members of the Jan. 6 House select committee regarding whether to make a criminal referral for former President Trump.
The New York Times reported that members of the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol are divided over whether to make a criminal referral to the Department of Justice (DOJ) for Trump, even though the panel has determined that they have the evidence for such a move.
The information the committee has reportedly justifies referring Trump for obstructing a congressional proceeding and conspiring to defraud the American people. The newspaper cited people involved in discussions.
The members are at odds over whether the referral, which is mostly symbolic, would have an adverse effect by staining the DOJ’s ongoing investigation, according to the Times.
