Topping McCarthy’s list of GOP nominees is Representative Jim Banks of Indiana, chair of the Republican Study Committee, who McCarthy wants to serve as the ranking member of the panel.
Representatives Jim Jordan of Ohio, the ranking member on the House Judiciary Committee, Rodney Davis of Illinois, the top Republican on the Committee on House Administration, Kelly Armstrong of North Dakota, and Troy Nehls of Texas, a former sheriff, round out the list.
Both Jordan and Banks are prominent allies of former President Donald Trump.
Pelosi has already named her eight choices to the panel, including Representative Bennie Thompson of Mississippi as the chairman. She has included one Republican, Liz Cheney of Wyoming, to serve.
Democrats urge Nancy Pelosi to BLOCK Jim Jordan s appointment to the January 6 committee
