Jan. 6 panel fires back at Jordan over refusal to cooperate

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol accused Rep. Jim Jordan of backtracking on his commitment to cooperate with it after the Ohio Republican said Sunday he would refuse to voluntarily appear before the panel.

“Mr. Jordan has previously said that he would cooperate with the committee’s investigation, but it now appears that the Trump team has persuaded him to try to hide the facts and circumstances of January 6th. The Select Committee will respond to this letter in more detail in the coming days and will consider appropriate next steps,” a committee spokesperson said Monday.
