Senate Dems File Ethics Complaint Against Sens. Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley over Jan. 6 Insurrection
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Several Senate Democrats have filed an ethics complaint against
Republican Senators Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley over their role in inciting
the deadly January 6 insurrection at the Capitol and seeking to overturn
the results of the 2020 election. The complaint seeks an investigation
into whether Cruz, Hawley or any of the senators' staffers were in
contact with organizers of the riot - or helped to coordinate their
actions.
