We call on Congress to create an independent commission to investigate the events leading up to and on the day of the insurrection of January 6.

The insurrection on January 6th was an attack on our democracy and our country. As Americans, we must demand accountability. As attorneys, we must ensure that the rule of law is upheld.

To uphold both the rule of law and our democracy, those with the power to respond must do so. 

Therefore, Congress must enact a truth commission to investigate the unlawful activities of any person who contributed to these profoundly damaging crimes and to make referrals to law enforcement where appropriate.

Thank you.
