Rep. Andy Biggs rejects request to testify in Jan. 6 riot investigation

PHOENIX (3TV/CBS 5/AP) — Rep. Andy Biggs is one of three GOP congressmen who told the Jan. 6 committee he won’t be voluntarily testifying. The panel sent its questions to Biggs, Rep. Ronny Jackson from Texas and Rep. Mo Brooks from Alabama for voluntary testimony and all three rejected them. Biggs claims the panel misquotes people and calls the committee “problematic.” “So I view it as an illegitimate committee, and I also view them as being untrustworthy,” said Biggs on Tuesday.

House Jan. 6 committee requests to interview Reps. Mo Brooks, Andy Biggs and Ronny Jackson

The House Select Committee sent letters to Republican Congressmen Mo Brooks, Andy Biggs and Ronny Jackson, former President Trump’s doctor, asking for their cooperation in interviews regarding the January 6th insurrection. Members of far-right groups texted on the 6th about protecting Jackson, saying he had “critical data to protect.” Jackson has told NBC News he ‘will not participate.’ The committee also says that Biggs attended a meeting with the Trump White House about efforts to illegally overturn the election for which he is allegedly seeking a presidential pardon.May 2, 2022.
