The focus of the hearing on Tuesday will be on law enforcement officers who responded to the riot, which was led by then-President Donald Trump’s supporters in an attempt to block the certification of Joe Biden’s presidential win.
Testifying will be Capitol Police officers Harry Dunn and Aquilino Gonell and Metropolitan Police officers Michael Fanone and Daniel Hodges.
According to the Associated Press, they were punched, trampled, crushed and sprayed with chemical irritants as the mob infiltrated the Capitol. They were also called racial slurs and threatened with their own weapons.
“We’re going to tell this story from the beginning,” said Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin, a Democrat who sits on the new House panel that is investigating the attack. “The moral center of gravity is these officers who put their lives on the line for us.”
