Collins Blames Pelosi for Jan. 6 Commission Problems

Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) “blamed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for creating this impasse because she did not consult in advance with House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell,” CNN reports.

Said Collins: “If I had been the Speaker, I would have reached out to him and talked to him about how it should have been drafted. I would have reached out to Kevin McCarthy. She did neither. So I think the fact that we’re in this situation now is due to the lack of outreach.”
