<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The House task force investigating the attempted assassination of former President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Donald Trump</a> began its work on Monday by requesting documents and briefings from top Justice Department and Homeland Security officials. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Task force chair Mike Kelly (R-PA) and ranking member Jason Crow (D-CO) sent letters to Attorney General Merrick Garland, FBI Director Christopher Wray, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, and Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe demanding all documents related to the assassination attempt. They requested that the departments set up briefings with the task force by August 16 to coordinate the investigation. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The letters, <a href="https://punchbowl.news/article/investigations/trump-assassination-attempt-task-force-first-official-act/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">obtained</a> by Punch Bowl News, request that the officials &#8220;produce documents and information directly to the Task Force from this point forward, including any documents and information that are in process in response to pending requests.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The task force </span><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-votes-to-establish-task-force-on-trump-assassination-attempt" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">was established</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> last month with seven Republicans and six Democrats. Several committees in both the House and Senate have already begun looking into the attack that left Trump and two of his supporters injured and one rally attendee dead. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In addition to Kelly, other Republican lawmakers on the task force <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-reveals-members-of-task-force-to-investigate-trump-assassination-attempt" target="_blank" rel="noopener">include</a> Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green (R-TN) and Reps. David Joyce (R-OH), Laurel Lee (R-FL), Michael Waltz (R-FL), Clay Higgins (R-LA),  Pat Fallon (TX). Democrats include Reps. Madeleine Dean (D-PA), Chrissy Houlahan (D-PA), Glenn Ivey (D-MD), and Jared Moskowitz (D-FL).</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) said that the task force would have subpoena authority and be handling all House inquiries into the Trump rally shooting. His office <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-reveals-members-of-task-force-to-investigate-trump-assassination-attempt">said</a> that the panel’s goals are to “understand what went wrong on the day of the attempted assassination,” “ensure accountability,” and “prevent such an agency failure from ever happening again.”</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are still questions about who was responsible for the security failures at the July 13 Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.</span></p>
