U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks, R-Huntsville, was not referred to the House Ethics Committee by the select panel investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol despite ignoring a subpoena to testify during the probe.
While four of Brooks’ Republican colleagues who also ignored subpoenas were referred to the Ethics Committee, the Huntsville congressman, who will be out of office next month after not seeking re-election to his House seat and losing in the U.S. Senate primary runoff to Sen.-elect Katie Britt, was not cited by the Jan. 6 panel.
Four GOP House members were referred to the House Ethics Committee: House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy of California, and Reps. Scott Perry of Pennsylvania, Jim Jordan of Ohio, and Andy Biggs of Arizona. If you purchase a product or register for an account through one of the links on our site, we may receive compensation.
