House Homeland Security Committee chairman to visit Trump shooting site Monday

House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mark Green (R-TN) is scheduled to visit the site of the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump on Monday, according to a press release from the committee.

Green and 10 other committee members will tour the grounds in Butler, Pennsylvania, where Trump held a campaign rally that was quickly interrupted by a gunman who took aim at the former president, grazing his right ear, killing one person, and injuring two more.

“This Committee continues to seek answers from DHS and Secret Service for the security lapses resulting in the near-assassination of former President Trump and the tragic murder of Corey Comperatore,” Green said in the release. “We will visit the site on Monday morning to better understand how this near-assassination took place.”

The committee members’ visit to Butler will come after Green invited Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle, and FBI Director Christopher Wray to testify Tuesday on Capitol Hill.

Wray declined his invitation to testify. Mayorkas has yet to respond and has since been subpoenaed by the committee. Cheatle received a subpoena, with which she has agreed to comply, from the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, before which she is scheduled to testify Monday.

The Butler visit is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. Monday, and Green will address the media at 12:45 p.m. “to inform the public of the Committee’s oversight investigation into the security lapses of that day,” according to the release.
