Summary

Following the assassination attempt on former President Trump's life, Democrats and Republicans on Capitol Hill immediately got to work investigating the Secret Service's failures on that nearly fatal Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania. After Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle was unable to answer many of Congress' tough questions during a House Oversight Committee hearing earlier this week, she ultimately resigned — but what more can be done to ensure the Secret Service, local law enforcement, and other federal agencies can prevent something like this from happening again in the future? Leaders of the House Oversight Committee, Congressman Jamie Raskin (D-MD) and Congressman James Comer (R-KY) discuss how they're working across the aisle to instill corrective measures in agencies like the Secret Service and ensure the safety of all presidential candidates in the future.
