House Republicans Demand Answers On Pelosi Security Decisions, National Guard Deployment

 WASHINGTON, DC - JANUARY 13: Weapons are distributed to members of the National Guard outside the U.S. Capitol on January 13, 2021 in Washington, DC. Security has been increased throughout Washington following the breach of the U.S. Capitol last Wednesday, and leading up to the Presidential inauguration.

House Republicans are demanding that Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) answer key questions about Capitol security both before and after the January 6th riots that left five people dead and dozens injured.

In a pair of requests, Republicans are demanding to know whether Pelosi had a hand in denying a request from Capitol Police chief Steven Sund for National Guard assistance ahead of the January 6th rally, and why, now that the threat of violence at the U.S. Capitol seems to have decreased markedly, National Guard troops are being asked to remain on duty in Washington, D.C., until early fall.
