This comes after the Pretrial Services Agency for the District of Columbia issued notice in the Federal Register that it would create a new records system to track federal employees’ “personal religious information”.

On Monday, Congressman Andy Biggs demanded that the Select Committee allow House members access to conducted depositions, including collected materials, in their January 6 investigation.

“House rules clearly provide the ability for Members of Congress to attend depositions and review collected testimony,” said Congressman Andy Biggs. “The January 6 Select Committee and it’s sham of an investigation has denied members access to depositions, interviews, and transcripts. It is attempting to ruin reputations by leaking, out of context,  fragments of testimony.”
