Ranking Member Raskin Issues Statement on Oversight Committee Democrats’ Accomplishments in 2023
Amid Republican Infighting, Oversight Committee Democrats Championed Truth and Transparency and Defended the Interests of the American People
Washington, D.C. (December 28, 2023)—Today, Rep. Jamie Raskin, Ranking Member of the Committee on Oversight and Accountability, released the following statement regarding the Committee Democrats' activity in the first session of the 118th Congress:
"As Speaker Johnson's Do-Nothing Republican Congress spent the entirety of 2023 pushing lies and catering to Donald Trump, launching a nonsensical impeachment inquiry into President Biden, expelling its own Members, overthrowing the Speaker, and shirking its duty to fund the government, Committee Democrats poured our time and energy into working for the American people and defending the rule of law.
"As Ranking Member of the Oversight Committee, I am proud of what the Truth Squad has accomplished in the first half of the 118th Congress by thoroughly debunking GOP lies and smear campaigns to bring the truth to the American public. While Republicans have promoted disinformation and propaganda over transparency and honesty, we ardently fought to shine light on the facts—and our work continues into 2024 and beyond," said Ranking Member Raskin.
