Banks, Other Indiana Lawmakers Still Object To Electors Despite Violence On Capitol Hill
WASHINGTON Indiana Congressman Jim Banks is lambasting those who took part in the violence that took place on Capitol Hill on Wednesday in Washington.
Banks, who was one of the lawmakers in Congress who objected to certain electors as a joint session of Congress took up a measure to certify the Electoral College results, said anyone who engaged in the violence needs to be brought to justice.
“I hope that we prosecute those people that are seen in photos that did what they did,” Banks told Tucker Carlson on Fox News. “That cost the life of one individual and brought violence to the Capitol building.”
