A bipartisan task force led by Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA) has been established to investigate the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. The task force, comprising seven Republicans and six Democrats, was announced by House Speaker Mike Johnson and Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and will have the authority to issue subpoenas. The investigation will focus on the security failures that allowed a 20-year-old shooter to access a rooftop near the rally, resulting in one death and injuries to three others, including Trump. Members of the task force have backgrounds in law enforcement and military service, aiming to ensure accountability and prevent future incidents. The panel is tasked with issuing a final report before December 13, 2024, detailing its findings and recommended reforms to relevant agencies. Rep. Laurel Lee emphasized the need for transparency and accountability in light of the catastrophic security failure on July 13.
