Which GOP Lawmakers Allegedly Asked Trump for a Pardon?

Questions have been raised about which GOP members of Congress allegedly asked Donald Trump for presidential pardons over their role in the January 6 attack, following Rep. Liz Cheney's remarks about Scott Perry during the House committee's first hearing.

On Thursday, Cheney, vice-chair of the panel, said that Perry and "multiple other Republican congressmen" sought presidential pardons for their roles in attempting to overturn the 2020 election.

Perry was subpoenaed by the panel, along with four other sitting Republican lawmakers, for evidence, all of whom have refused to cooperate.
