June 30, 2024 - Washington, D.C. — Last week, Senator Tom Cotton released the following:

Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) today released the following statement after the Supreme Court decided to limit obstruction charges against January 6 defendants. Senator Cotton led 22 of his congressional colleagues in filing an amicus brief opposing the Department of Justice’s overreach:

“Today’s decision is a victory against the Biden Administration’s abuse of power. The Department of Justice stretched a law in a way more befitting a banana republic than America. This Administration tolerates violent crime and an open border, but they manipulated a statute to imprison grandmas anywhere near the Capitol on January 6. I was proud to lead the amicus brief and commend the Court for its decision.”
