WASHINGTON D.C.<\/strong> –\u00a0Earlier this week, I sent a written response to the House Committee on Ethics regarding a reckless and frivolous complaint filed by liberal Washington Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal concerning the events of January 6, 2021.<\/p>\n

For more than three months, I have sat quietly while I have been baselessly attacked by the liberal media, Democrats and even some of my Republican colleagues alleging that I have somehow acted criminally, or against the country I love and protect.<\/p>\n

These attacks are ill-conceived, defamatory and patently false.<\/p>\n

On January 6, 2021 I determined to invoke the Electoral Count Act of 1887, and the 12th<\/sup> Amendment to the United States Constitution, to object to the certification of Electors from Arizona.<\/p>\n

This is neither calamitous nor unethical.\u00a0Indeed, in 2016, Democrat Members of Congress invoked the same law to object to the certification of the 2016 Presidential election of Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

The dishonesty of Ms. Jayapal is particularly rich, when she herself stood on the House Floor and called for an objection of President Trump\u2019s certification in January 2017.<\/p>\n

I have at all times conducted myself credibly and well within the acceptable norms of Congress.\u00a0The assertion that I planned, created, assisted or otherwise participated in the riot on January 6 is malicious and patently false.<\/p>\n

The liberal media attack dogs are once again attempting to smear my name by implying I was the author of documents purporting to be the basis of a new Congressional caucus.<\/p>\n

Let me be perfectly clear, I did not author nor did I ever even see any documents that the media claims I wrote.\u00a0In fact, I first became aware of their existence by reading about it in the news this week, just like you!<\/p>\n

Any allegation that I drafted or even reviewed documents or statements is 100% FALSE. <\/b><\/p>\n

Imagine my surprise to read I \u201cwrote it.\u201d Once again, I am the subject of a false media story.<\/p>\n

I will continue to work on America First issues within the House Freedom Caucus. I will not let the lying media deter me from the America First work I have been championing for years in the House Freedom Caucus and with President Trump.<\/p>\n
