Rep. Liz Cheney's role on the House select committee charged with investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol was always meant to send a message of bipartisanship.
this week, Cheney’s role as the sole GOP member has only grown, Democratic aides and lawmakers told NBC News.she will try to add another Trump critic, Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., to the panel in an effort to bulk up Republican participation — but her role will still be distinct.
But she has joined the Democrats on the Jan. 6 committee seamlessly, those members say, gaining trust that is rarely found across the political aisle, especially after the attack on the Capitol. She attends Zoom and in-person preparation meetings and has displayed an impressive level of commitment, knowledge and a “ferocious” work ethic.
“In the meetings that we've had thus far, she is very determined to get to the truth, and operates in a very no-nonsense fashion,” Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said of Cheney. But the interests of the two women have merged with their public insistence that vital questions about the attack on their place of work must still be answered.
